+.. function:: methodcaller(name[, args...])
+
+ Return a callable object that calls the method *name* on its operand. If
+ additional arguments and/or keyword arguments are given, they will be given
+ to the method as well. After ``f = methodcaller('name')``, the call ``f(b)``
+ returns ``b.name()``. After ``f = methodcaller('name', 'foo', bar=1)``, the
+ call ``f(b)`` returns ``b.name('foo', bar=1)``.
