__f.func(a) is a method call, and methods always get the object itself as an extra initial argument. to fix this, add "self" to the method signature: class foobar(object): def func(self, arg): print 'foobar.func: %r' % arg see the tutorial for more info. > I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I'm just not understanding > something correctly. you are aware that blaming your mistakes on bugs in widely used code is somewhat rude, right? http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#id306617 </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
