isinstance()

The isinstance() (is instance) is a Python built-in function that checks object is an instance of a certain class and return the bool value (True or False). This function takes 2 arguments: instance and class:


              
12

            
print(isinstance(662, int))
print(isinstance(25.3, int))
copy

You can use this function to check your instances:


              
123456

            
class User:
  pass

user = User()

print(isinstance(user, User))
copy

issubclass()

The issubclass() (is subclass) is a Python built-in function that checks class is a Child of another class:


              
1234567891011

            
class First:
    pass

class Second(First):
    pass

class Third(Second):
    pass

print(issubclass(Second, First))
print(issubclass(Third, First))
copy

The issubclass() function works with classes only. If you want to check the instance, use the type() function inside the issubclass():


              
123456789

            
class A:
    pass

class B(A):
    pass

instance = B()

print(issubclass(type(instance), A))
copy
