Instance methods in Python are the most common type of method defined within a class. They operate on a specific instance (object) of that class and have access to the instance's data (attributes).
Key characteristics of instance methods:
Associated with instances:
They are called on an instance of a class, not directly on the class itself.
self parameter:
The first parameter of an instance method is conventionally named self. This parameter automatically refers to the instance on which the method is called, allowing the method to access and modify the instance's attributes.
Access to instance data:
Instance methods can access and manipulate the instance variables (attributes) associated with the specific object they are called upon.
Access to class data:
While primarily for instance data, they can also access class-level data (class variables) if needed.
Default method type:
When you define a regular function within a class, it is by default an instance method.
