If you have any idea to get the caller name inside the caller.
Its not normally very helpful since in Python the same function can have many names:
def F(x): return x*x a = F b = F c - lambda y: F(y) print F(1), a(2), b(3), c(4) Now, why would knowing whether the caller used F,a or b to call the same function object help? And what do you do in the case of c()? Do you return 'c' or 'F'? Maybe you could use it to tell you the context from which they were calling? But in that case there are usually better, more reliable, techniques - like examining the stackframe.
