Hi folks! As stated in subject, how do I decide wether to inherit <type 'type'> or <type 'object'>? Whenever I want to intantiate my derived type, I taked <type 'type'> here, but inheriting from <type 'object'> consequently would be reasonable in cases of pure static objects (i.e. objects/types using staticmethods exclusively), for whose I would prefer toplevel code outside a class definition in python, since python does not oblige programmers to use classes (like JAVA et. al.).
So, finally, my question is: Is there a design pattern, that makes <type 'object'> a reasonable (direct) base type for new objects/types? Right now, I can't see any. Thank you for answering! Greetings, F. Sidler -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
