# args 和 \*kwargs

我观察到，大部分新的 Python 程序员都需要花上大量时间理解清楚 `*args` 和 `**kwargs` 这两个魔法变量。那么它们到底是什么?

首先让我告诉你，其实并不是必须写成 `*args` 和 `**kwargs`。只有变量前面的 `*`（星号）才是必须的。你也可以写成 `*var` 和 `**vars`。而写成 `*args` 和 `**kwargs` 只是一个通俗的命名约定。那就让我们先看一下 `*args` 吧。

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://eastlakeside.gitbook.io/interpy-zh/args_kwargs.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
