I am reading the decorator section within Expert Python Programming and I am
very confused in the first example, of a method that was done before
decorators. It reads:
class WhatFor(object):
def it(cls):
print 'work with %s' % cls
it = classmethod(it)
def uncommon():
print 'I could be a global function'
uncommon = staticmethod(uncommon)
But I can't seem to understand the above. Under what circumstance would
staticmethod be useful? I am just deriving that you are not passing self.
