What does this mean: *args, **kwargs? And why would we use it?

Answer Posted / Ankur Saxena

*args and **kwargs are special syntaxes used for variable-length arguments in Python functions. *args allows a function to accept any number of positional arguments as a tuple, while **kwargs allows a function to accept any number of keyword arguments as a dictionary. These are useful when the number or names of arguments passed to a function are not known at the time of defining the function.
