How to return an operator from a function?

Question

How can I return operators in python? I tried this but it didn't work obviously:

def plus():
    return +

Is it even possible to write code like this without using the plus operator?

print(3plus()4)

The function can return the operator function, so you can do `plus()(3, 4)`, but `3plus()4` isn't valid code. — jonrsharpe, Oct 17 '20 at 13:23
