    Hi,<br>
    I use a module downloaded from the net. Now I want to build my own
    class, based on the class SerialInstrument offered in this module -
    and in my class I would like to initialize a few things, using e. g.
    the method clear() offered by SerialInstrument. Hence I type:<br>
    <br>
    class myClass(SerialInstrument)<br>
        self.clear(self)<br>
        def f1(self, str1, str2)<br>
            ...do something etc.<br>
    <br>
    I then get the message "self not know" from the statement
    self.clear(self). I have tried many other notations - none worked.
    What works is however the following code - specifying myClass
    without the self.clear(self) in it:<br>
    <br>
    x = myClass("argument")<br>
    x.clear()<br>
    <br>
    How can I integrate this call into the definition of myClass? Thanks
    for advice.<br>
    Bob<br>
