Subclass methods

[kuraga]

Good day! Thanks for your work!

Should I decorate the subclass' method?
How do I do it right?

import multimethod

class A:
    @multimethod.multimethod
    def meth(self, arg: int):
        pass

    @multimethod.multimethod
    def meth(self, arg: str):
        pass

class B(A):
    ...

Thanks!

class B(A):
    @A.meth.register
    def _(self, arg: float): ...

You may also be interested in discussion #106, which is a similar issue.

@coady , thanks!

But #106 (comment) suggests:

class B(A):
    f = multimethod(A.f)

    @multimethod
    def f(self, x: int):
        return x

Which is correct?

[coady]

Both. The example in #106 assumes that the author can't change A to have multimethods.

@coady , thanks!

P.S. Didn't see class examples in the docs. 'd be nice to have them...
