[PD][ot] py: converting tuple to list

[david golightly]

(moving to off-topic)

Since tuples are static after creation & can't be changed but only
reassigned, what you have to do is iterate over the items in the tuple
to create a new list:

largs = []
for i in range(len(args)):
    largs.append(args[i].replace(' ', '_'))

return largs

I don't understand why you're trying to use reduce().  This method is
designed to call a function recursively over a set of items or over a
range, so that each subsequent iteration is called with the result of
the previous iteration.

Hopefully this is closer to what you're looking for.
