source for the property function

[Rowland Smith]

Anyone know where the source code for the built-in property function
is located in a python distribution?

I would like to see how it works - mainly, how does it know which
class it is being called from?

Thanks,
Rowland

Google the "descriptor protocol" for new-style classes. That explains it.
