Decorators
Decorators allow to wrap a function or method in another function that can add functionality, modify arguments or results, etc. You write decorators one line above the function definition, beginning with an "at" sign (@).
Example shows a print_args decorator that prints the decorated function's arguments before calling it:
>>> def print_args(function):
>>> def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
>>> print 'Arguments:', args, kwargs
>>> return function(*args, **kwargs)
>>> return wrapper
>>> @print_args
>>> def write(text):
>>> print text
>>> write('foo')
Arguments: ('foo',) {}
foo
