def func(a,b,c , *args , **kwargs):
    print(a)
    print(args)
    print(kwargs)

func(2,3,4,5,Carlson=240,Shehroz="maladiss")

# print(args) showing (5,). NEED TO FIX. python 3.9.6

I don't know what behavior you were expecting, but *args means "the rest of the positional arguments", not "all of the positional arguments."

See https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/controlflow.html?highlight=variadic#arbitrary-argument-lists

As Dennis said, this isn't a bug. Try printing `b` and `c` as well, and you'll find 3 and 4.
