He already has a TTT instance. Since he's calling the TTT.duplica method 
from another TTT method, the easiest way (and the most Pythonic, and the 
most sensible, is to do this:

self.duplica(7)

Calling duplica from the class as TTT.duplica will work, if he does:

TTT.duplica(self, 7)

but why would you want to?
