well.</li>
<li>If <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">A</span></tt> falls back to the boilerplate code, and it were to
return a value from <a class="reference internal" href="../reference/datamodel.html#object.__add__" title="object.__add__"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">__add__()</span></tt></a>, we&#8217;d miss the possibility
that <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">B</span></tt> defines a more intelligent <a class="reference internal" href="../reference/datamodel.html#object.__radd__" title="object.__radd__"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">__radd__()</span></tt></a>, so the
boilerplate should return <a class="reference internal" href="constants.html#NotImplemented" title="NotImplemented"><tt class="xref py py-const docutils literal"><span class="pre">NotImplemented</span></tt></a> from
<a class="reference internal" href="../reference/datamodel.html#object.__add__" title="object.__add__"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">__add__()</span></tt></a>. (Or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">A</span></tt> may not implement <a class="reference internal" href="../reference/datamodel.html#object.__add__" title="object.__add__"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">__add__()</span></tt></a> at
all.)</li>
<li>Then <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">B</span></tt>&#8216;s <a class="reference internal" href="../reference/datamodel.html#object.__radd__" title="object.__radd__"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">__radd__()</span></tt></a> gets a chance. If it accepts
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">a</span></tt>, all is well.</li>
<li>If it falls back to the boilerplate, there are no more possible
methods to try, so this is where the default implementation
should live.</li>
<li>If <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">B</span> <span class="pre">&lt;:</span> <span class="pre">A</span></tt>, Python tries <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">B.__radd__</span></tt> before
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">A.__add__</span></tt>. This is ok, because it was implemented with
knowledge of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">A</span></tt>, so it can handle those instances before
delegating to <a class="reference internal" href="#numbers.Complex" title="numbers.Complex"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">Complex</span></tt></a>.</li>

<p>If <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">A</span> <span class="pre">&lt;:</span> <span class="pre">Complex</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">B</span> <span class="pre">&lt;:</span> <span class="pre">Real</span></tt> without sharing any other knowledge,
then the appropriate shared operation is the one involving the built
in <a class="reference internal" href="functions.html#complex" title="complex"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">complex</span></tt></a>, and both <a class="reference internal" href="../reference/datamodel.html#object.__radd__" title="object.__radd__"><tt class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">__radd__()</span></tt></a> s land there, so <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">a+b</span>
<span class="pre">==</span> <span class="pre">b+a</span></tt>.</p>
<p>Because most of the operations on any given type will be very similar,
it can be useful to define a helper function which generates the
forward and reverse instances of any given operator. For example,
<a class="reference internal" href="fractions.html#fractions.Fraction" title="fractions.Fraction"><tt class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">fractions.Fraction</span></tt></a> uses:</p>
