LangChain - Chains and LCEL
What will happen if you run this code?
from langchain.chains import SequentialChain
chain = SequentialChain(chains=[], input_variables=["text"])
output = chain.run({"text": "Test"})
AIt raises an error because chains list is empty
BIt returns the input dictionary unchanged
CIt returns an empty string
DIt returns None
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Check SequentialChain requirements

    SequentialChain expects a non-empty list of chains to process input.
  2. Step 2: Analyze empty chains list effect

    Providing an empty list causes the chain to have no steps, which raises an error on run.
  3. Final Answer:

    It raises an error because chains list is empty -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    Empty chains list causes error [OK]
Quick Trick: SequentialChain needs at least one chain to run [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Assuming it returns input unchanged
  • Expecting empty string output
  • Thinking it returns None silently
