- irahul 15y ago>>> Foo = type("Foo", (FooBase,), {'bar' : 42}) is not equivalent to what the blog post says it is to. FooBase should be defined before running this, and the blog post's equivalent make it look like this statement defines FooBase as well.
- jackpirate 15y agoI think you neglected the line in front of it, which does define FooBase. 1. >>> FooBase = type("FooBase", (object,), {}) 2. >>> Foo = type("Foo", (FooBase,), {'bar' : 42}) Although I am not a python expert, so you may be right... in which case, how does line one not work?
- irahul 15y agoI stand corrected - I was skimming and didn't notice. The example is correct - I was wrong.
- iandanforth 15y agoFor me this article was written in reverse. For an intro I'd love to have had the 'code smell' example first to establish why I might care and when I might need this, and then dive into an example.
