https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#object.__getattr__ Wrote:object.__getattr__(self, name)
Called when the default attribute access fails with an AttributeError (either __getattribute__() raises an AttributeError because name is not an instance attribute or an attribute in the class tree for self; or __get__() of a name property raises AttributeError). This method should either return the (computed) attribute value or raise an AttributeError exception.
