The self

Every instance of a type has an implicit property called self, which is exactly equivalent to the instance itself. You use the self property to refer to the current instance within its own instance methods.

Static Final class

final class CustomClass {
	init() { }

	static func doSomethingStatic() { }

	func doNormalClassInstantiation() { }
}

let staticClass = CustomClass()
staticClass.doNormalClassInstantiation()


CustomClass.doSomethingStatic()

Since this static func is in CustomClass.doSomethingStatic() works as its own static class.
