# numpy.iterable

numpy.iterable(y)

  Check whether or not an object can be iterated over.

  Parameters:
    y object

      Input object.

  Returns:
    b bool

      Return `True` if the object has an iterator method or is a sequence and `False` otherwise.

  Notes

  In most cases, the results of `np.iterable(obj)` are consistent with `isinstance(obj, collections.abc.Iterable)`. One notable exception is the treatment of 0-dimensional arrays:

      >>> from collections.abc import Iterable
      >>> a = np.array(1.0)  # 0-dimensional numpy array
      >>> isinstance(a, Iterable)
      True
      >>> np.iterable(a)
      False

  Examples

      >>> np.iterable([1, 2, 3])
      True
      >>> np.iterable(2)
      False
