In Python classes, functions and methods are first class objects. You
bind the `DemoClass` class object to the name `x`, you are *not* creating
an instance of `DemoClass`.
Then you access the attribute `WriteToFile` of the `DemoClass` class
object. But you don't do anything with it.
In [39]: class DemoClass(object): pass
....:
In [40]: x = DemoClass
In [41]: x
Out[41]: <class '__main__.DemoClass'>
In [42]: y = DemoClass()
In [43]: y
Out[43]: <__main__.DemoClass object at 0xb5a3fd4c>
In [44]: x()
Out[44]: <__main__.DemoClass object at 0xb5a3fc2c>
You have to call the class object and the method to see any effects.
