n Python, everything is an object, even the classes that create objects. You used a class to instantiate an object instance, but classes themselves are also instantiated behind the scenes. This mechanism is available to you as a programmer through the concept of metaclasses.
This is an advanced topic and this video is geared toward an intermediate Python or beyond.
This is a portion of the complete course, which you can find here:
