Subject: *args and **kwargs
Ok, this is probably definitely a newbie question, but I have looked
all over the Python library reference material and tutorials which I can find online and I cannot find a clear definition of what these are and more importantly how to use them. From what I can tell from their use in the examples I've seen, they are for passing a variable number of arguments to a function (which I need to do in a program I am working on). But how do you use them? Is there a fixed order in which the arguments within *arg or **kwarg should be passed or will be called within a function? I realize this probably involves a long- winded answer to a very simple and common programming problem, so if someone has a link to TFM, I'll gladly go RTFM. I just can't find it.
