object() : Return a new featureless object in Python

object() Return a new featureless object. It has the methods that are common to all instances of Python classes

x=object()
print(type(x)) # <class 'object'>

Object as function

We can't call object as a function() like this example.

class student_kit():
    college_name='ABC College'  #class attributes

     #instance attributes
    def __init__(self,name,section):
        self.name= name
        self.section=section
        self.height=5  #instance attribute
    
Alex=student_kit('Alex','A')  # object declaration
print(Alex.name,Alex.section,Alex.height)
Alex()

The last line will generate error like this. TypeError: 'student_kit' object is not callable

Let us add __call__(self) to this.

class student_kit():
    college_name='ABC College'  #class attributes

     #instance attributes
    def __init__(self,name,section):
        self.name= name
        self.section=section
        self.height=5  #instance attribute
    def __call__(self):
        print('Hi , you called me')

Alex=student_kit('Alex','A')  # object declaration
print(Alex.name,Alex.section,Alex.height)
Alex()

Output

Alex A 5
Hi , you called me

Here we have added __call__(self) so we can use Alex().

So calling object as function ( with parenthesis () ) mean execution ojbects __call_(self) method.
