Ok, maybe this is a stupid question, but why can't I make a subclass of
datetime.date and override the __init__ method?
---
from datetime import date
class A(date):
def __init__(self, a, b, c, d):
print a, b, c, d
date.__init__(self, 2006, 12, 11)
d = A(1, 2, 3, 4)
---
$ python break_date.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "break_date.py", line 9, in ?
d = A(1, 2, 3, 4)
TypeError: function takes exactly 3 arguments (4 given)
If I make A a subclass of some toy class that is constructed with three
arguments, it works fine. Why can't I make "date" the subclass?
Thanks for any advice.
David
