#staticmethod

Description: Encapsulate a method as a static method. Refer to the classmethod function.

def staticmethod(fn):
    '''
    Encapsulate a method as a static method

    :param fn: The method to encapsulate
    :return: The encapsulated method
    '''

Static methods have no implicit parameters. To declare a static method, the conventional approach is:

class C:
    @staticmethod
    def fn(arg1, arg2):
        pass

Example:

class Cat:

    @staticmethod
    def speak():
        print('Meow Meow Meow')

# Call via the class
Cat.speak()

# Call via an instance
cat = Cat()
cat.speak()
