Please tell me. Thanks~
Merely changing func_name to 'f' will not register 'f' in the module's namespace. So calling f() will cause a NameError as there is no function object bound to the name 'f' in the namespace. Instead, if you say f = g then 'f' is bound in the namespace to the function object pointed to by 'g' and you can now make the call f(). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
