i created a class and in some instances when i use it call some of its

i'm using python 3.1.1
I'm guessing that you're doing something like
def foo():
...
print foo().__name__
foo() would call the foo() function, so you'd be asking the .__name__ of
the object returned by foo not the __name__ of foo. Instead you'd need
to use the the function object itself, IOW don't call foo just do:
print foo.__name__
This should work for both python 2 and python 3, and for both class
methods or regular functions.
