Python 3.1.1 Class Question
- by Protean
I'm a new Python programmer who is having a little trouble using 'self' in classes. For example:
class data:
def __init__(self):
self.table = []
def add(self, file):
self.table.append(file)
data.add('yes')
In this function I want to have table be a variable stored in the class data and use add to modify it. However, when I run this script it gives me the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Projects/Python/sfdfs.py", line 7, in <module>
data.add('yes')
TypeError: add() takes exactly 2 positional arguments (1 given)
I assume that I am trying to call the function the wrong way in this instance, as this syntax is very similar to an example in the python documentation: http://docs.python.org/3.1/tutorial/classes.html
