Is it possible to put a doc string on a class attribute?
Class and function docstrings are generated from string expression
statements at the beginning of a suite.
class Test (object):
'''classx'''
fred = 10
'''attribute'''
This is two statements that have no particular connection with each other.
print Test.__doc__
print Test.fred.__doc__
This code produces this output
classx
int(x[, base]) -> integer
...
If an instance does not have a requested attribute, it is looked up on
its class (and superclasses). Since all classes are subclasses of object
and that has a docstring, I guess everything will.
