+Function Objects
+----------------
+
+.. index:: object: function
+
+There are a few functions specific to Python functions.
+
+
+.. ctype:: PyFunctionObject
+
+   The C structure used for functions.
+
+
+.. cvar:: PyTypeObject PyFunction_Type
+
+   .. index:: single: MethodType (in module types)
+
+   This is an instance of :ctype:`PyTypeObject` and represents the Python function
+   type.  It is exposed to Python programmers as ``types.FunctionType``.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyFunction_Check(PyObject *o)
+
+   Return true if *o* is a function object (has type :cdata:`PyFunction_Type`).
+   The parameter must not be *NULL*.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyFunction_New(PyObject *code, PyObject *globals)
+
+   Return a new function object associated with the code object *code*. *globals*
+   must be a dictionary with the global variables accessible to the function.
+
+   The function's docstring, name and *__module__* are retrieved from the code
+   object, the argument defaults and closure are set to *NULL*.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetCode(PyObject *op)
+
+   Return the code object associated with the function object *op*.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetGlobals(PyObject *op)
+
+   Return the globals dictionary associated with the function object *op*.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetModule(PyObject *op)
+
+   Return the *__module__* attribute of the function object *op*. This is normally
+   a string containing the module name, but can be set to any other object by
+   Python code.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetDefaults(PyObject *op)
+
+   Return the argument default values of the function object *op*. This can be a
+   tuple of arguments or *NULL*.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyFunction_SetDefaults(PyObject *op, PyObject *defaults)
+
+   Set the argument default values for the function object *op*. *defaults* must be
+   *Py_None* or a tuple.
+
+   Raises :exc:`SystemError` and returns ``-1`` on failure.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: PyObject* PyFunction_GetClosure(PyObject *op)
+
+   Return the closure associated with the function object *op*. This can be *NULL*
+   or a tuple of cell objects.
+
+
+.. cfunction:: int PyFunction_SetClosure(PyObject *op, PyObject *closure)
+
+   Set the closure associated with the function object *op*. *closure* must be
+   *Py_None* or a tuple of cell objects.
+
+   Raises :exc:`SystemError` and returns ``-1`` on failure.
