### check type of variable including typing types e.g. Union, Optional, List, Dict, Tuple, Literal, Any, AnyStr, TypeVar, etc.

## Signature examples

### Apply signature decorator on top of any function, which will be type-safe - raising exceptions where granular level types are not correct.


```python
help(TySig.signature)
```

    Help on function signature in module tysig.tysig:
    
    signature(classobj: bool = False, **in_vars_types)
        signature decorator applied to functions to hard check the types
        of the arguments including typing types. Also applies default values,
        and raises exceptions on failing type checks. Uses is_type function.
        
        Return types are also checked post execution of function.
        
        :param classobj: set to True if within a class (self object)
        :param in_vars_types: arguments with their types and/or default values
                              e.g. @signature(a=int, b=Union[float, str],
                                              c=List[Dict[str, Tuple[str, int]]]
        :return: applies signature checks and applies default values
    
    

### Working and Non-Working examples below


```python
@TySig.signature(a=(8, int), b=float, c=str, d=Tuple[str, List[int]])
def fn(*args, **kwargs):
    print(args)
    print(kwargs)
    return args, kwargs
```


```python
# working example where the data within the data structures conform to the signature
res = fn("hello", ("dd", [1, 2]), b=2.2)
print(res == ((), {'a': 8, 'c': 'hello', 'd': ('dd', [1, 2]), 'b': 2.2}))
```

    ()
    {'a': 8, 'c': 'hello', 'd': ('dd', [1, 2]), 'b': 2.2}
    True
    


```python
# non-working example where the data within the data structures do not conform to the signature
try:
    _ = fn("hello", ("dd", [1., 2]), b=2.2)  # list within tuple is only allowed to hold int's
except TypeError as exp:
    print(exp)
```
