OK, the analogy is cute, but I really don't know what it means in Python. Can you give an example? What are the parts of an old-style class that have to be 'ordered' separately? How do you 'order' them concisely with a new-style class? Thanks, Kent Marc Tompkins wrote: > I thought of an analog

Re: [Tutor] Memory consumption question

I thought of an analogy I like better than my sign-painting one: ordering a sandwich. Imagine: you're at the deli, and your waitron asks what you want. (Granted, this is a silly example.) "Classic" order: "I'd like a sandwich with two slices of rye bread, Russian dressing, corned beef, and Swiss

Re: [Tutor] Memory consumption question

I didn't mean that exactly literally - for goodness' sake, this is a high-level, object-oriented, interpreted language! We're not writing machine language here. What I did mean, and will probably still not express as clearly as I'd like, is that when you create a "classic" class, lots of options

Dear all, I have a question... : >>> class A: pass ... >>> class B(object) : pass ... >>> dir(A) ['__doc__', '__module__'] >>> dir(B) ['__class__', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__doc__', '__getattribute__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__module__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__',
