- search for 'method resolution order' for other hits in that document.
First of all, that's the LR for Python 2, I'm with Python 3. Second of
all, there's one single passage containing the phrase method
resolution order
And by the way, the reason I've come across this problem at all is
because I have something like this:
class A:
class X:
n = 'a'
x = X()
class B(A):
class X(A.X):
n = 'b'
# x = X()
The line commented out was originally not there, but I found out I had
to add it if I wanted B().x.n

Out of curiosity, are there languages where inheritance means copy?
I think some prototype-based ones handle it that way...

Maybe. For some languages this might be an obvious behavior, but
Python would have different circumstances so it isn't so obvious (or
possible) there.
Which means this topic definitely needs to be handled in detail by the
LR, and preferably also in the Tutorial. Otherwise there is no way

Makes sense to me. To step through what's happening:
A.n, B.n
(0, 0)
Here, the lookup on B.n fails (that is, B itself has no variable n),
and thus falls back to A.n
See, this is what tripped me up, right at the beginning. I thought B
would inherit (as in copy) the variable n from A.

would you expect the B class to have a copy of the foo method?
Sorta. I would expect B to have a copy of the foo attribute, which
then refers to the same method as A.foo. So the method itself will be
be copied, but its address stored separately in A.foo and B.foo.

I've just found out that a subclass shares the class variables of its
superclass until it's instantiated for the first time, but not any
more afterwards:

String variables are strings.
Int variables are ints.
Float variables are floats.
List variables are lists.
Class variables are classes.
Classes are first-class

It became clear to me that mastervar inside of class a is a static
variable, and is associated with all instances of classes that extend
class a. To get around this, I implemented a seperate mapping class:
class mapper:
def __init__(self):
self.mastermap = []

Yeah, that's basically what's happening. AFAICT, a variable declared at
class level is shared with all subclasses (and is
