sharing your code

A final test of the functonality should convince you that your module is now working exactly the way you and your
users want it to. Let’s start with the original, default behavior:

>>> names = ['John', 'Eric', ['Cleese', 'Idle'], 'Michael', ['Palin']]
>>> print_lol(names)
John
Eric The original, default functionality
is restored (that should please
Cleese Bob).
Idle
Michael
Palin
Next, turn on indentation by providing True as the second argument:

>>> names = ['John', 'Eric', ['Cleese', 'Idle'], 'Michael', ['Palin']]
>>> print_lol(names, True)
John
Eric By providing a second argument,
Cleese it’s possible to switch on indented
Idle output (keeping Laura happy).
Michael
Palin
And, finally, control where indentation begins by providing a third argument value:

>>> names = ['John', 'Eric', ['Cleese', 'Idle'], 'Michael', ['Palin']]
>>> print_lol(names, True, 4)
John
Eric
Indenting from a specific
Cleese tab-stop is also possible.
Idle
Michael
Palin
