Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: > * Callable object: callable, o, callable_object => func
The original names better describes the argument type in functions like PyObject_Call(). It works not just with functions, but with arbitrary callables. For example it is used with type objects for creating instances. > * Method name: name or nameid => method The parameter is not a *method object*, but a method *name*. You have to pass an object and a method names to call a method. > Serhiy: Can you please elaborate "Other changes looks not well justified > too."? Renaming obj to arg0 looks questionable to me. I would rather rename func to method (this is a true unbound method, not method name as in PyObject_CallMethod()). It would be better to uniformize parameter names in the documentation (and perhaps in headers) and left sources untouched unless we rewrite particular functions. Otherwise it looks as code churn. It would be nice to formalize naming rules in PEP 7.
