I vaguely recall that the __name__ attribute is specific to classes, so I’m leaning towards option D, but I need to double-check that.

I’m a bit confused about the differences between A and C. They both mention class instances, but I think only one of them is correct.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this. I know __name__ is a special attribute, but I can't remember if it's for both classes and instances or just for classes. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Because the __name__ attribute contains the name of a class, not information about the class instance.
