Extracting a value from a nested dictionary or list by dot path

Implement the function get_by_path(obj: dict | list, path: str) -> Any, which takes:

• obj – an arbitrary nested dictionary or list;
• path – a string describing a sequence of keys/indices separated by dots.

The function should traverse the specified path and return the found value. If at any point the path becomes inaccessible (missing key, incorrect data type, list index out of range, etc.), it should return None.

Example usage:

obj = {
    'a': {
        'b': {
            'c': 1
        }
    }
}

get_by_path(obj, 'a.b.c')  # returns 1
get_by_path(obj, 'a.d.e')  # returns None

Starter code for the function:

from typing import Any

def get_by_path(obj: dict | list, path: str) -> Any:
    ...
