A single '*' could indicate that no additional positional arguments were
permitted.
def f(*, paramA, paramB=10):
print paramA, paramB
Here paramA and paramB can only be passed as keywords, and paramA *has* to be
passed as it has no default.
Utterly magical to anyone not already familiar with the use of *args, though.
Cheers,
Nick.
