It's unclear to me why we need callable functions as a separate new
construction, when Python already has a notion of callable functions.
I.e., why is this not enough for you already?
def f(x,y):
return sin(x)
or even
f= lambda x,y: sin(x)
What's the advantage of what you're proposing over what's already there?
