In Python, how do I determine if an object is iterable?

Question

Is there a method like isiterable? The only solution I have found so far is to call

hasattr(myObj, \'__iter__\')

But I am not

Answer 1

The isiterable func at the following code returns True if object is iterable. if it's not iterable returns False

def isiterable(object_):
    return hasattr(type(object_), "__iter__")

example

fruits = ("apple", "banana", "peach")
isiterable(fruits) # returns True

num = 345
isiterable(num) # returns False

isiterable(str) # returns False because str type is type class and it's not iterable.

hello = "hello dude !"
isiterable(hello) # returns True because as you know string objects are iterable
