call a static method on an instance of a class in python

To call a static method on an instance of a class in Python, you can simply use the instance name instead of the class name. Here's an example:

main.py
class MyClass:
    @staticmethod
    def my_static_method():
        print("This is a static method.")

my_instance = MyClass()
my_instance.my_static_method()
159 chars
8 lines

Output:

main.py
This is a static method.
25 chars
2 lines

In the example above, we defined a MyClass with a static method called my_static_method. We then created an instance of MyClass called my_instance. Finally, we called my_static_method() on the my_instance instance, and it printed out the string as expected.

Note that while it is possible to call static methods on an instance in Python, it is generally not recommended because it can be confusing and misleading to other programmers reading the code. Instead, it's better to call static methods on the class itself.
