Not it's not common. And the name "self" is a convention codified in PEP8 which you shouldn't violate. And I agree with the OP that the convention is really annoying. self.rect.width = self.foo(self.rect.x + self.rect.y) * self.boo() is much less concise than s.rect.width = s.foo(s.rect.x + s.rect.y) * s.boo() -- mvh Björn -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
