interesting take on python OO

The last article gives you the absolute basics of using Python. This
time, we'll do the OO side of Python. Yes, Python: a true object-
oriented language with classes, inheritance and all.

Ok, my OO background comes from the usual suspects of OO language, C+
+, Java and Object Pascal (Delphi). So I have this preconceived idea
about what Python OO should be. When I discover how OO is implemented
in Python, my first reaction was: "What the <expletive> is this
s#~! ?" My idealism about OO is offended by what Python does with
object and classes. It offers a new perspective on what can be done
with classes and object. Over time Python has grown on me, and now I
can really appreciate what it can do. So if you have the same reaction
as mine, keep reading. It will grow on you as well.
