How-To Guide for Descriptors

Raymond Hettinger has published a How-To Guide for Descriptors for the Python language. The abstract says: "Defines descriptors, summarizes the protocol, and shows how descriptors are called. Examines a custom descriptor and several built-in python descriptors including functions, properties, static methods, and class methods. Shows how each works by giving a pure Python equivalent and a sample application."
