Sorry, if the example was misleading. Here is a better one:
def f(g):
print g.__name__
>>> f(f)
f
The __name__ attribute of f is constant and it doesn't matter whether
you pass f around or create aliases:
>>> x = f
>>> x.__name__
f
x refers still to the function object f. Therefore the __name__
attribute does not return "x" but "f". You will always print the right
function name not the name of the local variable.
