Improved grammar, restored the "greeting" example, hid proposed solution inside a HTML comment.

greeting.capitalize is a function object, and that object has a .__name__ attribute that you can access. But greeting.capitalize() calls the function object and returns the capitalized version of the greeting string, and that string object doesn't have a .__name__ attribute. (But even if it did have a .__name__, it'd be the name of the string, not the name of the function used to create the string). And you can't do str.capitalize() because when you call the "raw" str.capitalize function you need to pass it a string argument to capitalize.

| May 28, 2017 at 11:30 | comment | added | Peter Gibson | Make sure you're not adding brackets after capitalize in that statement | |

@PM2Ring I got this TypeError: descriptor 'capitalize' of 'str' object needs an argument using str.capitalize.__name__

What's wrong with str.capitalize.__name__ or greeting.capitalize.__name__?
