How to check if variable is a specific class in python?
python
Solution
Use `isinstance`, this will return true even if it is an instance of the subclass:
if isinstance(x, my.object.kind)
Or:
type(x) == my.object.kind #3.x
If you want to test all in the list:
if any(isinstance(x, my.object.kind) for x in alist)
Problem
I have a variable "myvar" that when I print out its `type(myvar)` the output is: ``` <class 'my.object.kind'> ``` If I have a list of 10 variables including strings and variables of that kind.. how can I construct an if statement to check whether an object in the list "mylist" is of `<type 'my.object.kind'>`?
