__init__ is a constructor function for an object. The macro itself is

Objects being constructed, like the location object, have constructors
that get called.

self is implicitly passed as the function is defined in the scope of the object.
class myobj(object):
def myfunction(self, argument):
pass
m = myobj()
m.myfunction(arg)
