brainpy.math.issubclass_(arg1, arg2)#

issubclass_ is equivalent to the Python built-in issubclass, except that it returns False instead of raising a TypeError if one of the arguments is not a class.

Parameters:

  • arg1 (class) – Input class. True is returned if arg1 is a subclass of arg2.

  • arg2 (class or tuple of classes.) – Input class. If a tuple of classes, True is returned if arg1 is a subclass of any of the tuple elements.

Returns:

out – Whether arg1 is a subclass of arg2 or not.

Return type:

bool
