If all in list == something

Question

Using Python 2.6, is there a way to check if all the items of a sequence equals a given value, in one statement?

[pseudocode]
my_sequence = (2,5,7,82,35)

if         


        

Answer 1

I would suggest:

if all(isinstance(i, int) for i in my_list):

all and any first appeared in 2006 with Python 2.5 (feature implemented by Raymond Hettinger).
If you're using an older version of Python, the links provide sample implementations.

I also suggest using isinstance since it will also catch subclasses of int.
