**This is a follow up from a previous discussion in which it is argued

I pointed out to you that the word object WAS used correctly: hence, the 
correct terminology was used in that error message.

You are just wasting people's time.

That is just rude!

I'm still trying to understand what is the problem you are having with
my post. Have you followed the previous thread? Is there anything you
are not understanding?

People were saying to me that in Python object = instance. I'm trying to
argue why I believe it isn't and asking for arguments to convince me
otherwise.

And that's the best you can do?

Python does imply that an object is an instance, btw. It is why I got
that answer from more than one person. Or so they say.

By referring to an instance of Sub as "Sub object", there's an implicit
affirmation that an object is an instance.

Bye.


Mario and Andre, when you have to write code to meet the deadline to get the stage payment, does either of your bosses really care whether or not you are dealing with an object, an instance, or a piece of dead meat dropped by the neighbour's cat?
