Language: Python

Category: Best Practices

Description

A static method makes no use of an instance. Therefore, the self argument is not needed nor useful and should not be used.

Non-Compliant Code Examples

class Foo:
  @staticmethod
  def foo(self, bar):  # no need to use the self argument with a @staticmethod
     pass

Compliant Code Examples

class Foo:
  @staticmethod
  def foo(bar):
     pass
