+.. function:: getcallargs(func[, *args][, **kwds])
+
+ Bind the *args* and *kwds* to the argument names of the Python function or
+ method *func*, as if it was called with them. For bound methods, bind also the
+ first argument (typically named ``self``) to the associated instance. A dict
+ is returned, mapping the argument names (including the names of the ``*`` and
+ ``**`` arguments, if any) to their values from *args* and *kwds*. In case of
+ invoking *func* incorrectly, i.e. whenever ``func(*args, **kwds)`` would raise
+ an exception because of incompatible signature, an exception of the same type
+ and the same or similar message is raised. For example::
+
+ >>> from inspect import getcallargs
+ >>> def f(a, b=1, *pos, **named):
+ ... pass
+ >>> getcallargs(f, 1, 2, 3)
+ {'a': 1, 'named': {}, 'b': 2, 'pos': (3,)}
+ >>> getcallargs(f, a=2, x=4)
+ {'a': 2, 'named': {'x': 4}, 'b': 1, 'pos': ()}
+ >>> getcallargs(f)
