Technology Stack : itertools

Code Type : Function

Code Difficulty : Intermediate


                
                    
def zip_longest(*args, fillvalue=None):
    # This function zips multiple iterables together, filling in missing values with `fillvalue` if the iterables are of unequal length.
    from itertools import zip_longest
    return zip_longest(*args, fillvalue=fillvalue)
