> is there a way to define a class method which prints the instance name? The term "the instance name" is misleading, because it assumes, without saying so explicitly, that every instance has a unique name. In fact, there is no reason that an instance needs to have a name at all, or that it should have only one. You gave this example: instance_1 = class_1() instance_1.myName() but what if I did this instead? class_1().myName() Or this? instance_1 = class_1() instance_2 = instance_1 instance_2.myName() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
