The function utilizes the built-in `zip_longest` to merge multiple iterable objects. When one iterator is exhausted, it uses a `fillvalue` to fill the remaining iterators until all iterators are exhausted.
Technology Stack : zip_longest
Code Type : Function
Code Difficulty : Intermediate
def zip_longest(*args, fillvalue=0):
iters = [iter(arg) for arg in args]
while True:
result = []
for iter_ in iters:
try:
result.append(next(iter_))
except StopIteration:
result.append(fillvalue)
if not any(result): # if all iterators are exhausted
break
yield tuple(result)
