note the original question is partially invalid... Python functions and
methods aren't typed. however, i imagine the OP really meant *return value*
instead, so the answer is really the following:
functions *and* methods with no explicit return *value* return None... this
happens when you either have no return statement or just return by itself
with no object given.

one exception is __init__()... you're never supposed to return anything
from it... ever. i can't think of any others... can you?

best regards,
