I suppose you mean b = foo() ?

The name of a class is in the attribute '__name__' of the class. The
class of an object is in the attribute '__class__' of the object.
>>> class Foo(object):
... pass
...
>>> b = Foo
>>> b.__name__
'Foo'
>>> b = Foo()
>>> b.__class__.__name__
'Foo'

Help on built-in function dir in module __builtin__:
dir(...)
dir([object]) -> list of strings
Return an alphabetized list of names comprising (some of) the attributes
of the given object, and of attributes reachable from it:
No argument: the names in the current scope.
Module object: the module attributes.
Type or class object: its attributes, and recursively the attributes of
its bases.
Otherwise: its attributes, its class's attributes, and recursively the
attributes of its class's base classes.
