[C++-sig] inspect module and Boost.Python.function

[Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve]

You can use

help(your_function)

to get information about the arguments.

The signature with default arguments is in the docstring (unless you
turn this feature off).

Boost.Python supports overloads; the inspect module is not aware of
this.
