Overload functions in Python

I think the kwargs approach is fine for when you’re reading your code. When you’re writing I think you’ll always have to consult the docs, or headers. In a strongly typed language IDE can pick up the hint but in a more dynamic language like python it can get confused.

My bad - I meant this but didn't know how to format code so that is showed the stars

    def func(*args, **kwargs)

I am in full support of actual kwargs with names, it's the wildcard ones that I don't like.
