Trying to call an object fro, within a class

Question

I have written

class Spillebrett:
    def __init__ (self, rader, kolonner):
        self._rader=rader
        self._kolonner=kolonner
        self._rutenett=[[]]
        generasjon=0
        generer()

    def generer(self):
        for i in range(self._rader):
          for j in range(self._kolonner):

But I get

NameError: name 'generer' is not defined

Its defined further down, what do I have to do?

generer is a method belonging to the class. You have to call it using : `self.generer()` — xssChauhan, Oct 22 '17 at 06:38
Try `self.generer()`, that's how you refer to calss methods or attributes inside the class. — ZdaR, Oct 22 '17 at 06:38
@ShikharChauhan to be precise, `self.generer` is a bound method of object `self` and not identical (as in `is not`) to `Spillebrett.generer`. — timgeb, Oct 22 '17 at 06:42
@timgeb It would be great if you could explain this to OP in the answer. — xssChauhan, Oct 22 '17 at 06:45

Please change generer() to self.generer()

why ? because that method belongs to the class.
