Documentation

There is no glossary entry for what a callable is, though that term is frequently used in the docs and elsewhere. I often find myself wanting to add :term:callable references; I suggest we add an entry.

@AlexWaygood, are you up for writing a PR? I believe you can word this way better than me :)

I'll try to find the time, but it may have to wait a few days or so — it's a bit of a manic week for me 😄

Hi @erlend-aasland and @AlexWaygood,
I tried to write a possible entry to the glossary because it was a great opportunity to understand a bit more the Python implementation in C. I hope that it can help you 😃
