In python 3.1.2(I'm using windows edition, 32bit), accessing __class__ of an

I searched the python issue tracker but failed to find relevant reports. I 
wonder if  this is an unreported issue.

It's a little bit subtle. The trouble is that the parser
sees a number followed by a dot and assumes that it's looking
at a decimal number. When the next thing isn't a number, it
raises a SyntaxError exception.

You can achieve what you're after by putting a space before the dot:

1 .__class__
