Both support the same operation (to call the function), but the implementation is different, hence the different object types. -The implementation adds two special read-only attributes: -\code{\var{f}.func_code} is a function's \dfn{code -object}\obindex{code} (see below) and \code{\var{f}.func_globals} is -the dictionary used as the function's global namespace (this is the -same as \code{\var{m}.__dict__} where \var{m} is the module in which -the function \var{f} was defined). - -Function objects also support getting and setting arbitrary -attributes, which can be used, for example, to attach metadata to -functions. Regular attribute dot-notation is used to get and set such -attributes. \emph{Note that the current implementation only supports -function attributes on user-defined functions. Function attributes on -built-in functions may be supported in the future.} - -Functions have another special attribute \code{\var{f}.__dict__} -(a.k.a. \code{\var{f}.func_dict}) which contains the namespace used to -support function attributes. \code{__dict__} and \code{func_dict} can -be accessed directly or set to a dictionary object.
