skip_with_time

Parameters: skip_with_time (>>> res =) –

Specifying a zero value for duration doesn’t guarantee no elements will be dropped from the start of the source sequence. This is a side-effect of the asynchrony introduced by the scheduler, where the action that causes callbacks from the source sequence to be forwarded may not execute immediately, despite the zero due time.

Errors produced by the source sequence are always forwarded to the result sequence, even if the error occurs before the duration.

Unpack arguments grouped as tuple elements of an observable sequence and return an observable sequence of values by invoking the mapper function with star applied unpacked elements as positional arguments.

Use instead of map() when the the arguments to the mapper is grouped as tuples and the mapper function takes multiple arguments.
