Question

So I’ve been messing around with this all day, and I still can’t get it to work

class pleaseWork:
    def __init__(self):
        self.foo=printThis(1)
        self.bar=printThis(2)
    def printThis(x):
        if x==1:
            print "foot"
        elif x==2:
            print "bar"

result=pleaseWork()

result.bar

It just returns

NameError: global name 'printThis' is not defined

please tell me why it’s not working…

Answer 1

Because printThis is an attribute of the current object.

self.foo = self.printThis(1)
