Call python instance method, given the instance and function objects of the instance method?
In Python, given an instance of a class, and the class method objects, is it possible to call the corresponding instance method? E.g.
class MyClass:
def doA(self):
print("A")
def doB(self):
print("B")
methodA = MyClass.doA
methodB = MyClass.doB
instance = MyClass()
Am I somehow able to invoke instance.doA(), but given the methodA object? e.g.
instance.__invoke__(methodA)
python python-3.x

Yes, you would instead callmethodA(instance)

Ah, perfect. I fumbled around with the search terms for a bit but came out empty-handed. What are some keywords that I should've googled for this?

The reason for that call signature is thatself
is theinstance
when called as a method
