Re: Changing return of type(obj)

I would simply subclass 'int', but this object needs to be general enough to
pretend to be an 'int', 'NoneType', 'str', etc... A long shot: Can I change
the base class on an instance by instance basis depending on the need? Well,
now I can imagine having a class factory that will spawn for me the class
that inherits the correct base type. Any other solutions?
No, it's not possible. The type is an inherent part of an object. Python
looks up methods and other attributes by looking at the type. The method
call obj.method() is implemented as type(obj).method(obj).
