pandas.api.types.is_list_like

pandas.api.types.is_list_like(obj)

Check if the object is list-like.

Objects that are considered list-like are for example Python lists, tuples, sets, NumPy arrays, and Pandas Series.

Strings and datetime objects, however, are not considered list-like.

Parameters:

obj : The object to check.

Returns:

is_list_like : bool

Whether obj has list-like properties.

Examples

>>> is_list_like([1, 2, 3])
True
>>> is_list_like({1, 2, 3})
True
>>> is_list_like(datetime(2017, 1, 1))
False
>>> is_list_like("foo")
False
>>> is_list_like(1)
False
