I am currently working on a code decoder for fun and I managed to make a decoder of four letters or numbers in this form:

For w in string.printable:
    For x in ...:
        For y in ...:
            For z in ...:
                 If [w,x,y,z] = code :
                     Print (w,x,y,z)

What I would like is to have a function to make this possible for any amount of "for loops" layers for codes of any length. Is that possible?

The only way I can think off of the top of my head, is creating a function in which you pass two iterables, and unpack those iterables when you need to use them in a for loop. – Christian Dean Oct 21 '16 at 15:11
Do you have the link please? – Sionae Oct 21 '16 at 15:11
