Expanding tuples into arguments

Is there a way to expand a Python tuple into a function - as actual parameters?

For example, here expand() does the magic:

some_tuple =

    Similar to @Dominykas's answer, this is a decorator that converts multiargument-accepting functions into tuple-accepting functions:

    apply_tuple = lambda f: lambda args: f(*args)
    

    Example 1:

    def add(a, b):
        return a + b
    
    three = apply_tuple(add)((1, 2))
    

    Example 2:

    @apply_tuple
    def add(a, b):
        return a + b
    
    three = add((1, 2))

    Note that you can also expand part of argument list:

    myfun(1, *("foo", "bar"))

    myfun(*some_tuple) does exactly what you request. The * operator simply unpacks the tuple (or any iterable) and passes them as the positional arguments to the function. Read more about unpacking arguments.

    Take a look at the Python tutorial section 4.7.3 and 4.7.4. It talks about passing tuples as arguments.

    I would also consider using named parameters (and passing a dictionary) instead of using a tuple and passing a sequence. I find the use of positional arguments to be a bad practice when the positions are not intuitive or there are multiple parameters.

    This is the functional programming method. It lifts the tuple expansion feature out of syntax sugar:

    apply_tuple = lambda f, t: f(*t)
    

    Redefine apply_tuple via curry to save a lot of partial calls in the long run:

    from toolz import curry
    apply_tuple = curry(apply_tuple)
    

    Example usage:

    from operator import add, eq
    from toolz import thread_last
    
    thread_last(
        [(1,2), (3,4)],
        (map, apply_tuple(add)),
        list,
        (eq, [3, 7])
    )
    # Prints 'True'
