Identifying feature 'type' - feature class, raster or table?

[AnthonyCheesman1]

Having a major brain fade here!

How can I examine an object within a gdb, and determine if it is a FC, raster, or table?

[AnthonyCheesman1]

Brain fade averted, I think.

Will use ListFeatureClasses, ListRasters ad ListTables, compare the item in question to these lists, and make the determination accordingly.

Hopefully this works.

You can use the datatype property of the Describe function to do this.  Ex:

desc = arcpy.Describe(fc)
print desc.datatype
