Method Definition Tab Property

After LW Python reads a new method definition statement, it keeps the tab number the same. Thus, Python will skip the method body.

if the following are true:

  • the line at time t = i
  • the tab at time t = j
  • statement at line i, tab j = a method named method_name with parameters params

then the tab at time (t + 1) = j

For example,

if the following are true:

  • the line at time 1 = 2
  • the tab at time 1 = 1
  • statement at line 2, tab 1 = def __init__(self, first_name, last_name, age):

then the tab at time (1 + 1) = 1

Try stepping through the simulator to see LW Python skip the method body.
