Please tell me. Thanks~
You're confusing "the func_name attribute of the function object" with "one of the names to which the function object is bound". If you want to be able to invoke the-function-formerly-known-as-g using the name 'f', you don't want to change the func_name attribute, you want to add 'f' as a name bound to the function object. In Python, name binding is accomplished through the assignment statement: py> f = g py> f() decorating this is in function g What is is you're actually trying to do here?
