Hi Vijay, If you would have googled then you get number of links and may get more idea about that. You should try yourself first. BTW
classmethod ----------------- classmethod(function) Returns a class method for function. A class method receives the class as implicit first argument, just like an instance method receives the instance. To declare a class method, use this idiom: class C: @classmethod def f(cls, arg1, arg2, ...): ... The @classmethod form is a function decorator now you will be thinking about function decorator Decorators were introduced to the Python world as part of the 2.4 release. They have since become increasingly importantin, especially for maintaining and extending Python programs. In order to best grasp the purpose and beneficiality of Python's decorators, it is important to understand what happens when one imports modules. (to know more about http://python.about.com/od/gettingstarted/ss/begpydecorators.htm) It can be called either on the class (such as C.f()) or on an instance (such as C().f()). The instance is ignored except for its class. If a class method is called for a derived class, the derived class object is passed as the implied first argument. Class methods are different than C++ or Java static methods. staticmethod -------------------- staticmethod(function) Returns a static method for function. A static method does not receive an implicit first argument. To declare a static method, use this idiom: class C: @staticmethod def f(arg1, arg2, ...): ... The @staticmethod form is a function decorator It can be called either on the class (such as C.f()) or on an instance (such as C().f()). The instance is ignored except for its class. Static methods in Python are similar to those found in Java or C++.
