<p>In my opinion this is not a correct solution to the problem as stated. It passes the tests, but it does not create a class as requested. In some cases it behaves differently (Capital / c is the function, Capital2 the class, c2 is the object):</p> <pre class='brush: python'>>>> c = Capital('Kyiv') >>> c() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: Capital() missing 1 required positional argument: 'name' >>> c('M') <function Capital at 0x0000027F034C00D0> >>> import types >>> isinstance(c.name, types.MethodType) False >>> isinstance(c.name, types.FunctionType) True >>> >>> c2 = Capital2('L') >>> c2() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: 'Capital2' object is not callable >>> isinstance(c2.name, types.FunctionType) False >>> isinstance(c2.name, types.MethodType) True </pre>
