Built-in dir() function of Python ,on an instance shows the instance variables as well as the methods and class attributes defined by the instance's class and all its base classes alphabetically. So by any object as argument to dir() we can find all the methods & attributes of the object’s class.

Following code snippet shows dir() at work :

class Employee:

def __init__(self,name,empCode,pay):

self.name=name

self.empCode=empCode

self.pay=pay

print("dir() listing all the Methods & attributes of class Employee")

print dir(e)

-----------------------------------------------------

Output

dir() listing all the Methods & attributes of class Employee

[ '__init__', 'empCode', 'name', 'pay']
