Are you supposed to use self when referencing a member function in python (within the same module) Its used when you want to refer to the object's property or field or method inside a class as if you're referring to itself. More generally, i was wondering when it is required to use self, not just for methods but for
To close debugging questions where op omitted a self parameter for a method and got a typeerror, use typeerror The self is the conventional placeholder of the current object instance of a class Method () takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given instead
Technically both self and this are used for the same thing They are used to access the variable associated with the current instance Only difference is, you have to include self explicitly as first parameter to an instance method in python, whereas this is not the case with java Moreover, the name self can be anything.
