R. David Murray added the comment: Given a choice between catering for Python programmers and catering for Java/C++ programmers, the Python docs obviously ought to chose to cater to Python programmers. To a python programmer, calling C.f() is intuitive.
I would myself definitely *not* encourage the __class__.f() idiom. Maybe we should just drop the reference to Java and C++ static methods. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10438> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
