    apply() global function

    Python 2 had a global function called apply(), which took a function f and a list [a, b, c] and returned f(a, b, c). In Python 3, the apply() function no longer exists. Instead, there is a new function calling syntax that allows you to pass a list and have Python apply the list as the function’s arguments. +

    Python 2 had a global function called apply(), which took a function f and a list [a, b, c] and returned f(a, b, c). You can accomplish the same thing by calling the function directly and passing it the list of arguments preceded by an asterisk. In Python 3, the apply() function no longer exists; you must use the asterisk notation.
