a == b is false, but id(a) == id(b) is true?

Question

Ran into the following:

>>> class A:
...     def __str__(self):
...             return \"some A()\"
... 
>>> class B(A):
...     def __str_         


        

Answer 1

For those of us here attracted by your title, to determine whether a method was overridden:

class A:
    def __str__(self):
        return "some A()"

    def strWasOverridden(self):
        return A.__str__ != self.__str__
