The \var{function} argument must be a callable object (a
user-defined or built-in function or method, or a class object) and
the \var{args} argument must be a sequence (if it is not a tuple,
the sequence is first converted to a tuple). The \var{function} is
the \var{args} argument must be a sequence. The \var{function} is

calling \code{\var{func}(\var{args})}, since in that case there is
always exactly one argument.)

If the optional \var{keywords} argument is present, it must be a
dictionary whose keys are strings. It specifies keyword arguments
to be added to the end of the the argument list.
Calling \function{apply()} is different from just calling
\code{\var{func}(\var{args})}, since in that case there is always

to \code{\var{function}(*\var{args}, **\var{keywords})}.
