"And that's it. I exist. I have no recollection of anything before this instant. But I'm very aware of what I am now. I'm an object. This is the line of code that brought me into existence: My first recollection from a few moments ago was of being inside Team.__new__(). And I felt an affinity with my clan right away. I was a Team instance-an object of type Team."
"That number is who I am. It's the slot in memory I was allocated when I came into existence. It's the only way you can identify me for as long as I exist. Python gives each one of us objects a unique number so it can distinguish us. But you can't call me by that number. That's not my name, it's my identity."
An object comes into existence inside Team.__new__() and immediately recognizes itself as a Team instance. The object is transferred into Team.__init__() alongside a string 'The Invincibles' and a list of member names. The object is assigned a unique memory slot number that serves as its identity but not a usable name. The object prefers the name the_invincibles while acknowledging names can be reassigned. Python requests a display representation and the object produces the line Team(team_name='The Invincibles', members=['Claire', 'Ishaan', 'Margaret', 'Dan']). The object experiences satisfaction at being required by the interpreter. Later, Python finds code that prompts further interaction.
