'defore' is obviously 'before', but what is 'useds'? In and case...
Unresolved bindings,possibly like >>> _rdf_type Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? NameError: name '_rdf_type' is not defined
If you are asking for the module equivalent of __getattr__ class methods, there is none. Modules are namespaces. They are like dicts but minus the dict methods and with .attribute instead of ['attribute'] access. This is possible because all 'keys' are names (hence 'namespace').
In the previous example I'd like to see an answer like '<rdf:type>'
even if I never defined it.Is this not possible?I use __getattr__ in other situations,and it's very useful for proxying procedures,I was hoping on a real objectivation of a module.
Why the language should not consider a module as a 'normal' instance with 'normal' attributes?
