2.1.9 Special Attributes
The implementation adds a few special read-only attributes to several
object types, where they are relevant:
- __dict__
-
A dictionary or other mapping object used to store an
object's (writable) attributes.
- __methods__
-
List of the methods of many built-in object types. For example,
[].__methods__
yields ['append', 'count', 'index',
'insert', 'pop', 'remove', 'reverse', 'sort']
. This usually does not
need to be explicitly provided by the object.
- __members__
-
Similar to __methods__, but lists data attributes. This
usually does not need to be explicitly provided by the object, and
need not include the names of the attributes defined in this section.
- __class__
-
The class to which a class instance belongs.
- __bases__
-
The tuple of base classes of a class object. If there are no base
classes, this will be an empty tuple.
