The implementation adds two special read-only attributes to class
instance methods: \code{\var{m}.im_self} is the object whose method this
is, and \code{\var{m}.im_func} is the function implementing the method.
Calling \code{\var{m}(\var{arg-1}, \var{arg-2}, {\rm \ldots},
\var{arg-n})} is completely equivalent to calling
\code{\var{m}.im_func(\var{m}.im_self, \var{arg-1}, \var{arg-2}, {\rm
