Python 3有这个:

from typing import List

def isit(value):
    return isinstance(value, List)

isit([1, 2, 3])  # True
isit("test")  # False
isit({"Hello": "Mars"})  # False
isit((1, 2))  # False

因此，要检查list和tuple，它将是:

from typing import List, Tuple

def isit(value):
    return isinstance(value, List) or isinstance(value, Tuple)

简单的方法…使用any和isinstance

>>> console_routers = 'x'
>>> any([isinstance(console_routers, list), isinstance(console_routers, tuple)])
False
>>>
>>> console_routers = ('x',)
>>> any([isinstance(console_routers, list), isinstance(console_routers, tuple)])
True
>>> console_routers = list('x',)
>>> any([isinstance(console_routers, list), isinstance(console_routers, tuple)])
True

duck-typing的另一个版本，用于帮助区分类似字符串的对象和其他类似序列的对象。

类字符串对象的字符串表示就是字符串本身，所以你可以检查你是否从str构造函数返回了一个相等的对象:

# If a string was passed, convert it to a single-element sequence
if var == str(var):
    my_list = [var]

# All other iterables
else: 
    my_list = list(var)

这应该适用于所有与str兼容的对象和所有类型的可迭代对象。

我在tensorflow中找到了这样一个名为is_sequence的函数。

def is_sequence(seq):
  """Returns a true if its input is a collections.Sequence (except strings).
  Args:
    seq: an input sequence.
  Returns:
    True if the sequence is a not a string and is a collections.Sequence.
  """
  return (isinstance(seq, collections.Sequence)
and not isinstance(seq, six.string_types))

我已经核实了，它符合你的需求。

assert (type(lst) == list) | (type(lst) == tuple), "Not a valid lst type, cannot be string"

我倾向于这样做(如果我真的，真的必须这么做的话):

for i in some_var:
   if type(i) == type(list()):
       #do something with a list
   elif type(i) == type(tuple()):
       #do something with a tuple
   elif type(i) == type(str()):
       #here's your string
