"I don't get it. What's the difference between 'f_lineno' and
'lineno'?", Alice said.

Bob said, "You don't need documentation for this, you can just
try it out. In Python, you can always just try everything out."

Bob wrote,

import inspect as _inspect

print( _inspect.currentframe().f_lineno )
print( _inspect.getframeinfo( _inspect.currentframe() ).lineno )

, which printed,

3
4

. "There you got it! 'lineno' is 'f_lineno' plus 1.", Bob said.
