In python it is easy to build a dictionary or array and pass it unpacked to a function with variable parameters

I have this:

- (BOOL) executeUpdate:(NSString*)sql, ... {

And the manual way is this:

[db executeUpdate:@"insert into test (a, b, c, d, e) values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)" ,
  @"hi'", // look!  I put in a ', and I'm not escaping it!
  [NSString stringWithFormat:@"number %d", i],
  [NSNumber numberWithInt:i],
  [NSDate date],
  [NSNumber numberWithFloat:2.2f]];

But I can't hardcode the parameters I'm calling, I want:

NSMutableArray *values = [NSMutableArray array];

for (NSString *fieldName in props) {
  ..
  ..
  [values addObject : value]
}
[db executeUpdate:@"insert into test (a, b, c, d, e) values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)" ,??values];
