Or isexample, so that we aren't locked into implementing ABCs as base classes.
def isexample(val, ABC):
return ABC.__example__(val)
class ABC(object):
def __example__(cls, val):
if val in cls.__instance: return True
if val in cls.__non_instance: return False
for instclass in type(val).__mro__:
if instclass in __class: return True
if instclass in __non_class: return False
return False
