I’m noob in python and trying to get some details. So I was reading Python Types and Objects by Shalabh Chaturvedi , when the whole small book made sense to me I encountered this para.

There are two kinds of objects in Python:

1.Type objects – can create instances, can be subclassed.

2.Non-type objects – cannot create instances, cannot be subclassed.
….
….

To create a new object using subclassing, we use the class statement and specify the
bases (and, optionally, the type) of the new object. This always creates a type object.

To create a new object using instantiation, we use the call operator (()) on the type object
we want to use. This may create a type or a non-type object, depending on which type
object was used.

last para with italicized text totally eluded me. I thought calling someTypeObject() always created instance of type object.

Thanks

Googled , tried chat GPT but couldn’t get proper answer
