Here I have 2 questions: 1. How do you create an instance method object from a class method object by using either the class or the instance? 2. Why in both cases the __self__ is set to Class only? 3. Would you give me examples also while explaining this? > When an instance method object is derived from a class method object, the > “class instance” stored in __self__ will actually be the class itself, so > that calling either x.f(1) or C.f(1) is equivalent to calling f(C,1) where f > is the underlying function. Here x is an instance of C. Would you give me an example to illustrate why " x.f(1) or C.f(1) is equivalent to calling f(C,1)” ?
