Bound methods get created whenever you reference a method of an instance.
If you are calling the method then the bound method is destroyed as soon as
the call returns. You can have as many different bound methods created from
the same unbound method and the same instance as you want:
inst = C()
f1 = inst.foo
f2 = inst.foo
f1, f2
(<bound method C.foo of <__main__.C instance at 0x00B03F58>>, <bound method
C.foo of <__main__.C instance at 0x00B03F58>>)
I just wanted to interject, although those two hex
numbers in the above line are the same, calling
id() on f1 and f2 produces two *different* numbers,
which agrees with the point you made.
f1 is f2
False
f1 is inst.foo
False
Every reference to inst.foo is a new bound method.
