Python any() built-in function

From the Python 3 documentation

Return True if any element of the iterable is true. If the iterable is empty, return False.

Introduction

The any() function in Python is a built-in function that checks if at least one element in an iterable is True. It returns True if any element evaluates to true, and False if the iterable is empty or all elements are false. This is useful for quickly determining if a condition is met by any item in a collection.

Examples

# All values are falsy
any([0, '', False])

# Contains one truthy value (2)
any([0, 2, False])

# An empty iterable is considered False
any([])
False
True
False
