passing list to a function

[mohd rafiq]

Hi,
I have a list [0.2, [1, 1.3], [1, 0.5, 2.1] ...] and need to pass this list as argument in a function and should be able to access elements in the called function, kindly help with code or hints to do this.
Thanks in advance

Here's one way that encapsulates the list in an object:

>>> class A:
... 	def __init__(self, *data):
... 		self.data = data
... 	def __getitem__(self, i):
... 		return self.data[i]
... 	
>>> x = A(*[0.2, [1, 1.3], [1, 0.5, 2.1],])
>>> x[1]
[1, 1.3]
>>> y = A(1,2,3,4,5)
>>> y[0]
1
>>>
