  2. this (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    The first, Foo::new(), is not an instance function and must be specified with the type prefix. The remaining three all take a self parameter in a variety of ways and can be called on a Foo instance using the dot-notation syntax sugar, which is equivalent to calling the type-qualified function name with an explicit self first parameter.

  3. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python allows the creation of class methods and static methods via the use of the @classmethod and @staticmethod decorators. The first argument to a class method is the class object instead of the self-reference to the instance. A static method has no special first argument. Neither the instance, nor the class object is passed to a static method.

    class Dog: def __init__ (self, breed): self. breed = breed # instance variable # dog_1 is an object # which is also an instance of the Dog class dog_1 = Dog ("Border Collie") In the above Python code, the instance variable is created when an argument is parsed into the instance, with the specification of the breed positional argument.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Methods on objects are functions attached to the object's class; the syntax instance. method (argument) is, for normal methods and functions, syntactic sugar for Class. method (instance, argument). Python methods have an explicit self parameter to access instance data, in contrast to the implicit self (or this) in some other object-oriented ...

  7. Fluent interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluent_interface

    In Python, returning self in the instance method is one way to implement the fluent pattern. It is however discouraged by the language’s creator, Guido van Rossum, [3] and therefore considered unpythonic (not idiomatic) for operations that do not return new values. Van Rossum provides string processing operations as example where he sees the ...

  8. Quine (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quine_(computing)

    A quine's output is exactly the same as its source code. A quine is a computer program that takes no input and produces a copy of its own source code as its only output. The standard terms for these programs in the computability theory and computer science literature are "self-replicating programs", "self-reproducing programs", and "self-copying programs".

  9. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    Classes normally act as factories for new instances of themselves, that is, a class is a callable object (like a function), with the call being the constructor, and calling the class returns an instance of that class. However the __new__ method is
