def f(*li,**di): li = li or [1,2] di = di or {"a":5,"b":6}

There isn't a default value, can you try explaining what you mean?

*args is for an iterable and *kwargs is for a dictionary

No, just add the defaults in before hand. The point of *args and *kwargs is to handle a changable amount of values. If you have set values it defeats the purpose.

I Think You Mean To Say Values..... Values Are Used As: def function(arg1, arg2, arg3): # Code... This Function Will Only Allow 3 Arguments Not More Than That Nor Less Than That...

Slick Like this.. def my_func(y=7, *args, **kwargs): print(y) my_func () # 7 my_func (10) # 10 #But how to do same with *args and **args?

Shubham Bhatia , The Answer You POSTED Is Actually A Python Program... C Doesn't Use def To Create A Function!

Slick Yes but can't I provide it a default iterable for *args and default keywords for **kwargs same way I did with formal parameter?
