<br />In Python, *args and **kwargs are used in function definitions to allow a function to accept a variable number of arguments.<br /><br /> *args (Non-Keyword Arguments): It is used to pass a variable number of non-keyworded arguments to a function. These arguments are collected into a tuple within the function.<br /><br />**kwargs (Keyword Arguments): It is used to pass a variable number of keyword arguments to a function. These arguments are collected into a dictionary within the function, where the keys are the argument names and the values are the argument values. <br /><br />Python<br /><br />def example_function(*args, **kwargs):<br /> print("Args:", args)<br /> print("Kwargs:", kwargs)<br /><br />example_function(1, 2, 3, name="Alice", age=30)<br /># Output:<br /># Args: (1, 2, 3)<br /># Kwargs: {'name': 'Alice', 'age': 30}<br /><br />*args and **kwargs are useful when you don't know in advance how many arguments will be passed to a function, or when you want to create functions that are flexible and can handle different numbers of arguments.
