PEP 362: Function Signature Object
==================================
:pep:`362`: - Function Signature Object
PEP written by Brett Cannon, Yury Selivanov, Larry Hastings, Jiwon Seo.
Implemented by Yury Selivanov.
A new function :func:`inspect.signature` makes introspection of python
callables easy and straightforward. A broad range of callables is supported:
python functions, decorated or not, classes, and :func:`functools.partial`
objects. New classes :class:`inspect.Signature`, :class:`inspect.Parameter`
and :class:`inspect.BoundArguments` hold information about the call signatures,
such as, annotations, default values, parameters kinds, and bound arguments,
which considerably simplifies writing decorators and any code that validates
or amends calling signatures or arguments.
Using importlib as the Implementation of Import Using importlib as the Implementation of Import
=============================================== ===============================================
:issue:`2377` - Replace __import__ w/ importlib.__import__ :issue:`2377` - Replace __import__ w/ importlib.__import__
