I've been reading "Maya Python for Games and Films" and I’m having trouble
with something mentioned on page 32. The book mentions that python provides
a built in function, type(), which allows you to determine the type of a
variable at any point. Whenever I try to execute that function with a
variable inside the parenthesis, I get an error in Maya. An example would
be:
contents = ‘toys’
type(contents)
# Error: TypeError: file line 2: ‘module’ object is not callable #
I'm actually further along in the book on page 65 where I'm trying to
following along but running into the following:
def process_all_textures():
print(‘process all textures’)
type(process_all_textures)
# Error: TypeError: file line 4: ‘module’ object is not callable #
Any idea why I am getting this error? Other built in Python functions such
as id() work just fine.
