Python: Returning multiple values from a function into the arguments of another function

Question

is it possible to do something like that?

def multireturn():
  return 1, 2, 3

def add(a, b, c):
  return a+b+c

add(multireturn())

When I tried it, it errored as it sees only one argument. Thanks!

Answer 1

You need to unpack the tuple returned from the first function to make it behave as sequential positional arguments to the second. The * unpacking operator allows this:

add(*multireturn())

Answer 2

you need to add the unpacking operator * to unpack the tuple returned from the first function . try :

add(*multireturn())
