Detecting empty function definitions in python

Question

I need to detect whether a function is an empty definition or not. It can be like:

def foo():
    pass

or like:

def foo(i, *arg         


        

Answer 1

The way you're using works. A perhaps more "elegant" solution would be to have a list of functions, and in all your empty (or all your non-empty) functions you would add it to the list, and then check whether the function is in the list or not.
