For now I've basically called it isducktype(X, A) it returns true if: - X has all attributes of A
Isn't the requirement too strong? When I need a file-like object I seldom need more than .read() and .write() methods, and even of those I seldom need both at once -- I usually need one or the other. Testing for strict conformance is not duck typing IMO -- it's interface. Interfaces are for nominal languages. Technically it should be called x.is_structurally_subtype()
