Hello,
I just noticed that calling `str(x)` is actually doing (in CPython `PyObject_Str`) `type(x).__str__(x)` rather than `x.__str__()`. Context: I wanted to override __str__ for certain objects in order to “see them better”. I'm wondering why not do `x.__str__()` Best regards, -- Jérôme _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/2VSTPAVKCN6SNOPJG6MOSIP7SDK4W66W/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
