      I swear there's a lot of software engineering "best practices" out there that result from people talking themselves into believing that necessary workarounds weren't anti-patterns of a language's quirks but rather features of it.

      One cannot in good faith argue that the duck typing approach in the following answer is a sensible practice.https://stackoverflow.com/a/1952655

      Alas, recent comments suggest it is *the* pattern to use :(

          i mean, don't check at all; just iterate it and if the caller gave you garbage it's their problem

          for sure. It's just that for a lot of data sci stuff it can be irritating

          I'm curious, can you give me an example so I can understand your use case better?

          What I really want is the type inference to be a little bit smarter and let me do smthing like foreach x in v:.... and have it be fine *without* having to write code around it, for style reasons more than anything
