python类型检查函数,如何在Python中检查函数类型？

I've got a list of things, of which some can also be functions. If it is a function I would like to execute it. For this I do a type-check. This normally works for other types, like str, int or float. But for a function it doesn't seem to work:

>>> def f():

... pass

...

>>> type(f)

>>> if type(f) == function: print 'It is a function!!'

...

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "", line 1, in

NameError: name 'function' is not defined

>>>

Does anybody know how I can check for a function type?

Don't check types, check actions. You don't actually care if it's a function (it might be a class instance with a __call__ method, for example) - you just care if it can be called. So use callable(f).
