Description: Python ``ctypes``-based ``callable`` reimplementation
        =====================================================
        
        Implements ``callable`` using ``ctypes`` (useful on CPython
        3.0 and 3.1, which is missing the ``callable`` function).
        
        
        Versioning
        ----------
        
        This library's version numbers follow the `SemVer 2.0.0
        specification <https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html>`_.
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        ::
        
            pip install ctypes-callable
        
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        The use-case for using this module is if:
        
        1. You are using an **early** CPython 3 release missing ``callable``.
        2. You cannot upgrade to a newer CPython 3 for some reason.
        3. You want to use code which uses the ``callable`` builtin.
        
        To do this, run this before any code that uses ``callable`` (for
        example, `usercustomize` or `sitecustomize` might be good places):
        
        .. code:: python
        
            import ctypes_callable
            import builtins
            builtins.callable = ctypes_callable.callable
        
        
        Portability
        -----------
        
        This module will **fail** on ``import`` on Jython, IronPython, PyPy,
        MicroPython, PyPy.js, Brython, Transcrypt, and probably any other
        implementation besides CPython, because it relies on accessing the
        Python C API through ``ctypes``.
        
        If you're looking for something that's basically this, but won't break upon
        import on other Python implementations, you can use |polyfill-callable|_.
        
        .. |polyfill-callable| replace:: ``polyfill-callable``
        .. _polyfill-callable: https://pypi.org/project/polyfill-callable
