Easier: Just ignore the possibilities of failure and carry on with
your code. If the source isn't iterable, you'll get an error raised by
the for loop. If the predicate's not callable, you'll get an error
raised when you try to call it. The only consideration you might need
to deal with is that the predicate's not callable, and only if you're
worried that consuming something from your source would be a problem
(which it won't be with the normal iterables - strings, lists, etc,
etc). Otherwise, just let the exceptions be raised!
