Like ``` def create_function(f_name, args): real_func = getattr(__builtins__, f_name) def f_impl(*args, **kwargs): return real_func(*args) f_impl.__name__ = f_name f_impl.__text_signature__ = "(a, b)" return f_impl import inspect f = create_function("min", ("a", "b")) print(f.__name__, inspect.signature(f), f(1, 2)) ``` That seem to achieve the same goal without any compile or ``__wrapped__`` magic -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
