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

runs ok.
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__
Alternatively, you can use parenthesis:
(1).__class__
Some people find one solution uglier than the other.
