Hi I am new to Python classes and trying to figure out this particular issue here. I will need to create instances of a class. But at the moment I do not know how many instances I will end up having, in every case it might be different. Most of the documents I read makes this simpl class-student analogy to explain python classes which is fine. But in those examples the number and the names of the instances were known and limited.
I will be querying some data and create class instances based on the data I gather. But the problem as I mentioned is that I do not know the names and the number of the end class instances. They will be based on the content of the data. So how can I create class instances within a loop and when the loop is done how can I figure out the list of instances via class membership? I can track the names by introducing another list but I want to understand the class side of things. The solution might be dead simple but I just cannot figure out at the moment. For example this is what I need in the simplest form class myclass(): def __init__(self,name): self.name=name for count,data in enumerate(some list): instance_count=myclass() instance_count.name=data print instances thanks -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
