Pass the condition as a function.
def test1(a, b, condition=lambda i, j: True):
for i,j in zip(a,b):
c=i+j
if condition(i, j):
print("Foo")
test1([0,1,2,3],[1,2,3,4], lambda i, j: i+j > 4)
# etc.
If you find lambdas confusing and prefer named functions, those will
work just as well.
def i_plus_j_gt_4(i, j):
return i + j > 4
test1([0,1,2,3],[1,2,3,4], i_plus_j_gt_4)
