[Python-talk] Initializing a class...

The client server app I'm creating is so far going ok.  The usual debug 
and whatnot is in process.

One thing that I have stumbled upon is that an instance of a class I 
created is not being initialized as I expected.  I thought (and apparently 
I was wrong -- what a surprise...) that merely creating an instance of it 
was enough.

So how does one do this?

class myVars:
        def __init__(self):
                self.bufsize = 32
                self.bufdat = zeros(32)
                self.fftsize = 1
                self.oldfftsize = 0
                self.fftinput = zeros(self.fftsize) 
+1j*zeros(self.fftsize)
                self.fftoutput = zeros(self.fftsize) + 
1j*zeros(self.fftsize)
                self.dt = 1.0e-13

        def othermethods:

I thought just doing the following was sufficient:

c = myVars()
print 'FFT initial data is', c.fftinput

But I get AttributeError: myVars instance has no attribute 'fftinput'

Where am I going astray?  How do I init c?
