Class method differences in Python: bound, unbound and static

Question

What is the difference between the following class methods?

Is it that one is static and the other is not?

class Test(object):
  def method_one(self)         


        

Answer 1

that is an error.

first of all, first line should be like this (be careful of capitals)

class Test(object):

Whenever you call a method of a class, it gets itself as the first argument (hence the name self) and method_two gives this error

>>> a.method_two()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in 
TypeError: method_two() takes no arguments (1 given)
