Useful Functions

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
