Today in things I didn't know about Python - __call__

If you define a __call__ method in your class it will get called when you call an instance of that class. I didn't know that. That is all.

In [336]: class foo:
    def __init__(self):
        print "in init"
    def __call__(self):
        print "in call"

In [337]: bar = foo()
in init

In [338]: bar()
in call
