[1, 1, None, 1, 1, None, 1, 1, 0] Use *window_size* to control the number of items passed as arguments to *pred*. This allows for locating and replacing subsequences. >>> iterable = [0, 1, 2, 5, 0, 1, 2, 5] >>> window_size = 3 >>> pred = lambda *args: args == (0, 1, 2) # 3 items passed to pred >>> substitutes = [3, 4] # Splice in these items >>> list(replace(iterable, pred, substitutes, window_size=window_size)) [3, 4, 5, 3, 4, 5] r,
