Answer 1

function attributes are not local variables, but are added to the func_dict for the function in a key : value relationship. They can be accessed via the __dict__ of the function.
print(fun.__dict__)

Answer 2

https://docs.python.org/3.9/reference/datamodel.html#objects-values-and-types
Scroll down to callable types.
Also, lookup __dict__
The PEP is probably the most informative from what I've seen.

Answer 3

I think it's logical to say F.a is not local().
f.a is not a real variable but an attribute to f(a global object). All what the local() function do is to create a table containing information about the current context (must be global)
Current context here is f

ChaoticDawg thanks!
you have a docu for it?

Answer 5

Mirielle yes.
f.a is different to b. And thinking about the difference and locals() akes everything a bit clearer.
