Question

I have a problem and I hope you can provide me with an answer to it.

I’m trying to create a function that return the number of functions within a class that is stored in a python file .. is there a good way to do so??

Answer 1

You can also use inspect module:

class Test(object):
    def a(self):
        pass
    def b(self):
        pass


>>>>inspect.getmembers(Test, inspect.ismethod)
[('a', <unbound method Test.a>), ('b', <unbound method Test.b>)]
>>>>len(_)
2

Something like this should work for your second question:

import foo
import inspect

for a,b in inspect.getmembers(foo, inspect.isclass):
    print a 
    print len(inspect.getmembers(b, inspect.ismethod))
