hi,

try this,
class A:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
        self.data=[]                 # Define an array when you
instantiate an object.
    def append(self, info):
        #self.data=[]
        self.data.append(info)
    def enum(self):
        for x in self.data:
            print "\t%s" % x

a = A("A:")
print a.name
a.append("one")
a.append("two")
a.enum()
b = A("B:")
print b.name
b.append("horse")
b.append("bear")
b.enum()
print a.name
a.enum()
