I want to get the name of the function from within the function. Something like:
def myFunc(): print __myname__ >>> myFunc() 'myFunc' Really what I want to do is to easily strip off the prefix of a function name and call another function. Like this: def prefix_myFunc(a, b, c): name = __myname__[7:] call(name, a, b, c) That would call myFunc(a, b, c). How do I accomplish this 'elegantly', err...'pythonicly'..=) Also, is there a way to turn normal positional args into a tuple without using *? Like this: def f(a, b, c): print get_args_as_tuple() >>> f(1, 2, 3) (1, 2, 3) I don't want to use def f(*args): print args because I want to keep the error checking capability that comes with using a fixed number of positional args. Thank you for the help. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
