The method doesn’t need to specifically relate to the instance of that object, so it can simply act like a normal function we gain access to when we use the class.

In Python, everything is an object, including classes. Therefore, just as you can create an instance of a class, you can also create a class using another class.

I understand that static methods allow you to use those methods without having to create an instance of that class, and that class methods apply to the class rather than an object.
