In Python, you can make exactly the opposite error. Both of these are
perfectly legal and reasonable things to write, where foo is a function:
a = foo
a = foo()
Actually, if you want to have a little fun, try:
def foo:
return foo
then you can write:
a = foo
a = foo()
a = foo()()
a = foo()()()
a = foo()()()()
etc.
