What\'s the nicer way for methods that don\'t need any passed information (object instance or class) because for example they just do a simple conversion. @staticmet
Any methods that do not use names from the object namespace should by classmethods, and those that do not use names from the class namespace either - staticmetdods, or even be put on the module level as functions.
When the actual object method is used, the expected behavior is that some other attrubutes/methods from the same object will be accessed.
