Thanks. I have an array for functions like funcArray=[FuncA, FuncB, FuncC], and as I run them through a loop, I want to be able to tell which function is running. So perhaps just simply string(FuncA) would serve my need.

julia> functionname(f)=string(f.env.name) functionname (generic function with 1 method) julia> foo(x)=1 foo (generic function with 1 method) julia> functionname(foo) "foo" But be aware that this may change and is unlikely to be a good solution unless you really, really know what you are doing. Perhaps if you explained what you want to achieve you would get suggestions for better solutions. Best, Tamas On Sat, Apr 09 2016, K. leo wrote: > Say a function is named FuncA.

[julia-users] Is there a way to convert function name to a string?
Say a function is named FuncA. I hope to get this name into a string like "FuncA". Is there a way to do that?
