When programming, you’ll often need to check if all the items in an iterable are truthy. Coding this functionality repeatedly can be annoying and inefficient. Luckily, Python provides the built-in all()
function to solve this problem. This function takes an iterable and checks all its items for truth value, which is handy for finding out if those items have a given property or meet a particular condition.
Python’s all()
is a powerful tool that can help you write clean, readable, and efficient code in Python.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to:
- Check if all the items in an iterable are truthy by using
all()
- Use
all()
with different iterable types - Combine
all()
with comprehensions and generator expressions - Distinguish
