Object is not callable example

python interpreter treats 'name' as the variable 'name' that is a string other than the method name() use get_name() instead of name()

obj_not_callable.py

class Employee:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

    def get_name(self):
        print(self.name)

    def name(self):
        print(self.name)

a = "George"

e1 = Employee("")
e1.name = a
# same as
e2 = Employee(a)

e1.get_name()
e2.get_name()

try:
    e1.name()
except Exception as e:
    print(e)
