Re: The difference between __XX__ and XX method

Hi,

This is convention only
and typically used to denote
that a particular class attribute
is "private". Though note,
there is really no such thing in
Python.

cheers
James

Hi, Pythoners.
I would like to know that in some class, it uses __XX__ but in some it
uses only XX
for example,

class Test:
def __som__(self):
...
def som(self):
...
What does "__XX__" make the method different from XX?
Thanks in advance
Aonlazio
