As a complete and utter guess, I assume you are talking about something 
like:

result = func1(1, 2, func2(x, y))

In this case, func2() will be called before func1(). This is because 
func1() needs three parameters and one of those parameters is the return 
value of func2().

Python can not know the return value of func2() without calling it. 
Therefore, to be able to call func1() and give it its three parameters, 
it must first call func2() to find out what that third parameter value is.

It's equivalent to:

func2result = func2(x, y)
result = func1(1, 2, func2result)

If that is _not_ what you are talking about, then like Thomas says - you 
need to paste some code and explain what you are confused by.
