Exploring Attributes and Methods

[keios.titan]

Hi,
Is there a python command that allows me to extract the names (not
values) of the attributes of a class.

example

Class Sample:
fullname = 'Something'

How can I know that this class has an attribute called 'fullname'?

I hope my question is clear.
Thanks

['__doc__', '__module__', 'a']

If you had posted actual working code, "Class" would be all lower case
("class"). But we get the drift (in general, though, when posting
questions about examples from your code, best to copy-paste the actual
code, not a paraphrasing of it):

print Sample.__dict__.keys()

prints:

['__module__', 'fullname', '__doc__']


-- Paul

with the builtin hasattr() function
True

The question others have answered already. But I have one for you: you
are aware that these kind of variables are *class variables*, NOT
*instance variables*, as they are created like this:


class Foo(object):
def __init__(self):
self.fullname = "something"
