Polyline vs Polycurve

[djnelson75]

I am trying to understand what the difference is between a polyline and polycurve. Obvisouly a polycurve is made up of multiple curves with varying degrees that have been join together and a polyline if multiple lines joined together, but shouldn't a polyline be a specific type of polycurve. Or more specificly shouldn't the IsPolycurve() also return true of a polyline? The reason I asked is I want to something to a multiple line segemented object and I not sure how the user created it where he used the polyline tool or joined multiple lines together. Let say I want to explode them do I have do this:

if rs.IsPolyCurve(GCrv):
    Curves = rs.ExplodeCurves(GCrv)
if rs.IsPolyCurve(GCrv):
    Curves = rs.ExplodeCurves(GCrv)

or is there a way do it one shot? Maybe a way to look for multiple segments?

Thanks

Actually I think I answered my own question, for what I what I could use the IsCurve() function.
