I am trying to check the type of my variable user. When I do that :

print(typ(user))

I got that <class 'method'>

But now I would like to check the type of the variable user.

So I did that :

if type(user) == 'method':
    # my code

But it doesn't work, the type 'method' is not knownn by Python ... I don't know why.

Could you help me please ?

Thank you very much !

The type is "class" the instance is "method" – tomgalpin Mar 19 '21 at 13:49

Use `isinstance(user, method)` instead of `type(user) == '...'` – Maurice Meyer Mar 19 '21 at 13:52
