Recursive Transversal (Python)
$begingroup$
For a programming challenge I was doing, I needed to traverse a list of lists, and while writing the standard 2D traversal function, I thought why not generalise it, so I did. Here's my best effort:
My Code
def rTraverse(lst, f = lambda x: x): #Traverse a list and any of its (non self referential) sublists recursively.
for item in lst:
if isinstance(item, list):
if "..." in str(item): #Skip self-referential lists.
continue
traverse(item, f) #Traverse the sublist.
else:
f(item)
python performance algorithm array recursion
