Python's self.parse - why do we use it?

Why and when do we use self.parse()?



I've seen this in few functions when I was going through the code of tensorflow's- darkflow

          self.parse is simply a variable name you declared in your code, or could be a function you declared in your code.



          You do:



          print(self.parse)


          Output will be it's value.

            Okay. So, that is just a function which should have been defined somewhere.
