Python module: Exercise-3 with Solution

Write a Python program to check if a given function is a generator or not. Use types.GeneratorType()

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import types
def a(x):
    yield x
        
def b(x):
    return x

def add(x, y):
    return x + y

print(isinstance(a(456), types.GeneratorType))
print(isinstance(b(823), types.GeneratorType))
print(isinstance(add(8,2), types.GeneratorType))

Sample Output:

True
False
False

Python: Tips of the Day

Inverts a dictionary with non-unique hashable values:

Example:

def tips_collect_dictionary(obj):
  inv_obj = {}
  for key, value in obj.items():
    inv_obj.setdefault(value, list()).append(key)
  return inv_obj
ages = {
  "Owen": 25,
  "Jhon": 25,
  "Pepe": 15,
}
print(tips_collect_dictionary(ages))

Output:

{25: ['Owen', 'Jhon'], 15: ['Pepe']}
