@staticmethod / @classmethod (beginner + advanced) anthony explains #294

today I walk through what the `staticmethod` and `classmethod` decorators do -- I also show roughly how to implement them as descriptor classes

Please explain for what reason use the classmethod? Static is obvoius, but what are the usecase for classmethod?

I have a very love-hate relationship with Python but lately I have been just obsessed with decorators. I kind of love the concept and I wish a similar thing existed in other languages. I find the syntax pretty and quite useful honestly

[sadhlife]

do a 'descriptor in depth'! why do they exist? what makes a class a descriptor? and why do they exist, i.e. what do they allow you to do that any other python core features don't let you do? conveniently?

[expirytrader]

Can you add more details on usecase, I know class method can be used alternative constructor. What are else use cases

[sadhlife]

so `property`, `classmethod` and `staticmethod` are present globally, but only really make sense when being used inside a class, right?

5:10 Are you grep through the git repositories?
help(classmethod) show it too)). But your example with 'all-repos-grep' is interesting but not clear.
