c# - class vs static methods -
i'm new in python (come c#), trying figure out how oop works here. started begining try implement vector class. want have basis vectors (i, j, k) defined in vector class. in c#, can that: public class vector { // fields... public vector(int[] array){ //... } public static vector i(){ return new vector(new int[1, 0, 0]); } } exploring python found 2 ways how implement this: using either @classmethod or @staticmethod : class vector: def __init__(array): #... @classmethod def i(self): return vector([1, 0, 0]) since don't need have access information inside class, should use @classmethod ? i think you've confused naming of arguments bit. first argument class method receives class itself, vector, now, until have subclass. class method implemented this: @classmethod def i(cls): return cls([1, 0, 0]) generally, instance method (no decorator) calls first argument self , ins...
