Python Tutorial [Full Course]. Object Oriented Programing (Instance, Class & static method) part 2

In this Python Object oriented tutorial you will learn the use of Static methods in Python, Instance methods in python, Class methods in Python.

Instance methods are the most common type of methods in Python classes. Instance methods must have self as a parameter, but you don't need to pass this in every time. Self is another Python special term. Inside any instance method, you can use self to access any data or methods that may reside in your class.

Static methods in Python are extremely similar to python class level methods, the difference being that a static method is bound to a class rather than the objects for that class. This means that a static method can be called without an object for that class.

A class method in Python is a method which is bound to the class and not the object of the class. They have the access to the state of the class as it takes a class parameter that points to the class and not the object instance. It can modify a class state that would apply across all the instances of the class.

The @class-method decorator, is a builtin function decorator that is an expression that gets evaluated after your function is defined. The result of that evaluation shadows your function definition.
A class method receives the class as implicit first argument, just like an instance method receives the instance
