Class AnyType

Instance Methods

read(self, stream)
Read object from file.

source code

write(self, stream)
Write object to file.

source code

bool

is_interchangeable(self, other)
Returns True if objects are interchangeable, that is, "close" enough to each other so they can be considered equal for practical purposes. source code

__hash__(self)
AnyType objects are mutable, so raise type error on hash calculation, as they cannot be safely used as dictionary keys.

source code

Inherited from utils.graph.DetailNode: get_detail_child_edge_types, get_detail_child_names, get_detail_child_nodes, get_detail_display, get_detail_iterator, replace_global_node

Inherited from object: __delattr__, __format__, __getattribute__, __init__, __new__, __reduce__, __reduce_ex__, __repr__, __setattr__, __sizeof__, __str__, __subclasshook__

Inherited from object: __class__

read(self, stream)

source code

Read object from file.

Parameters:

stream (file) - The stream to read from.

write(self, stream)

source code

Write object to file.

Parameters:

stream (file) - The stream to write to.

is_interchangeable(self, other)

source code

Returns True if objects are interchangeable, that is, "close" enough to each other so they can be considered equal for practical purposes. This is useful for instance when comparing data and trying to remove duplicates.

This default implementation simply checks for object identity.

>>> x = AnyType()
>>> y = AnyType()
>>> x.is_interchangeable(y)
False
>>> x.is_interchangeable(x)
True

Returns: bool: True if objects are close, False otherwise.

hash(self)
(Hashing function)

source code

AnyType objects are mutable, so raise type error on hash calculation, as they cannot be safely used as dictionary keys.

Overrides: object.__hash__

__hash__(self) (Hashing function)

hash(self)
