I am a newbie for python and try to understand class Inheritance.

Why are you subclassing my_function.name and not just my_function?

The initializer method should be named "__init__", not "__initial__".

You forgot to include "self" as a parameter, like so:
    def test(self):

That should be "__main__" with an N, not "__maim__" with an M.
And "if" must be in all-lowercase.

Your class doesn't define any method named "main" (you only defined
test() and __initial__() ), so this call will fail.

You're missing a colon after the parentheses. Also, you're writing a
class, not a function, so please rename the class something less
confusing.

Have you read any Python tutorial? There are several basic errors in
your code which would suggest that you haven't. You really ought to;
it's well worth it.
The Beginner's Guide links to 2 lists of tutorials:
http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide

There's also the python-tutor mailing list, which is specifically
geared towards answering beginner questions:
