Django-python coding explanation

Question

What is static method and how can we explain the below code ?

  @staticmethod
    def get_model(**kwargs):
        try:
            return Model.objects.get(**kwargs)
        except Model.DoesNotExist:
            return

Answer 1

A staticmethod is a function not bound to an object, but is encapsulated within it ( typically to reduce outer namespace clutter, or eliminate any need to import it). It doesn't have the first self argument that a normal object method does.
