Are you sure?  Did you write 'static' or not?  If not, it is part of
an _instance_ of the class, not the class itself.

| That's my point exactly. You don't need it.

You declare _class_ members by assigning to them in the _class_ body.
You can't declare (or change the value of) _class_ members inside the
body of a function in the class unless you explicitly use the class
name.  

Now I think you really mean _instance_ members.  How do you declare
instance members in Python?
