[Tutor] __class__.__name__ for literal integer causes SyntaxError

[Tim Johnson]

See the following console session:
>>> 4.6.__class__.__name__
'float'
>>> 6.__class__.__name__
  File "<stdin>", line 1
    6.__class__.__name__
              ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
>>> x = 6
>>> x.__class__.__name__
'int'
>>> "me".__class__.__name__
'str'
I note that the reference to '__class__.__name__' for string and
float literals is executed, but that there is a SyntaxError for that
same reference of a 'int' literal.

I'd welcome comments, explanations or URLs to discussions.
thanks
