NameError: name 'separate' is not defined on line 99












0















This is my code that Im trying to recursively call the separate method but when run I keep getting an error when I try to call the separate method from within itself. Im still fairly new to Python and Im unsure about what is causing this error.



class operations():
def separate(string):
num1 = ""
num2 = ""
symbol = ""

def hasSymbol(string):
x=0
for x in string:
if(x == '&' or x == '^' or x == '|' or x == '<' or x == '>'):
return True
return False

if(hasSymbol(num1) == True):
separate(num1)
if(hasSymbol(num2) == True):
separate(num2) //this is the line thats throwing the error

return work(num1,symbol,num2)

    You need to use self.separate since separate is defined under class operations as an instance method.

    What is this supposed to do? Why is this code in a class? If these are supposed to be static methods, you should be using the staticmethod decorator.

  • Class methods need a self parameter.
