Convert a python 'type' object to a string

Question

I\'m wondering how to convert a python \'type\' object into a string using python\'s reflective capabilities.

For example, I\'d like to print the type of an object

Answer 1

print("My type is %s" % type(someObject)) # the type in python

or...

print("My type is %s" % type(someObject).__name__) # the object's type (the class you defined)
