Can you explain what is metaclass and inheritance in Python?

Every class is an object. It's an instance of something called a metaclass. The default metaclass is typed. You can check this using the is instance function. For example,

class Foo:
   pass

foo = Foo()
isinstance(foo, Foo)
isinstance(Foo, type)

This will give the output:

True
True

A metaclass is not part of an object's class hierarchy whereas base classes are. These classes are used to initialize the class and not its objects.
