I’ve been exposed to C/C++/Java like syntax over the years, and the way that Python variables are defined just sort of confuses me. Can anyone describe what the differences are among the three mentioned in the q?

selfworks just like thethisfrom C++ and Java. You get a reference to an object that you can then access with the.operator (->in C++).In Python the only way of accessing instance variables is explicitely through
self. Instance variables are not placed in the same “normal” scope as local or global variables are.
