[New-bugs-announce] [issue40224] Execute a @staticmethod (Python 3.8.2)

[keyboardAnt]

New submission from keyboardAnt <nadav0012 at gmail.com>:

Executing the following code* raise a NameError**. Is it on purpose?
Attached minimal example to reproduce.

class C:
	val = C.sm()

	@staticmethod
	def sm():
		return 'val'

*With Python 3.8.2, on MacOS.
**"NameError: name 'C' is not defined"

Best regards
