Python static Method

---

python static method: a static method used to return a function that does not force the passing of arguments, declaring a static method as follows.

class C(object):
    @staticmethod
    def f(arg1, arg2, ...):
        ...

The above example declares the staticmethod f so that it can be instantiated using C().f(), or of course it can be called without instantiating the method C.f()

Grammar

The grammar is

@staticmethod
def f(a,b,c):
    ...

Return value:

**None**

The following example shows how to use the staticmethod() function

class B(object):
    @staticmethod
    def f():
        print('Hello World!');
B.f();

# staticmethod without instantiating
cobj = B()
cobj.f() # can also be called after instantiation

output

Hello World!

This is where the staticmethod() function was learned.
