Class object calling.

Can someone give us a detailed explanation for, why the statement on the bottom is False?

Thank you in advanced.

Carlos A. Marin

    has_pulp = True

    def squeeze(self):
        return has_pulp

Orange().squeeze() will return True.

Since it doesn't have a "self." prefix, the "has_pulp" being returned by the "squeeze" method is either undefined, or it is a global for which the value can't be determined from the code shown.
