your x inside class __init__ should give error. Your code is running because you are using IDE like syder/jupyter which store previously run code's result. If you restart your IDE and run same code again it will raise error name 'x' is not defined
If you want to reference x (object of class) use self to get that reference.

>>> class test:
...     def __init__(self, max):
...         print(self, "b")
...
>>> x = test(2)
<__main__.test object at 0x0000016A080052C8> b
>>> print(x,"a")
<__main__.test object at 0x0000016A080052C8> a

as you can see both x and self inside __init__ have same address.
Some reference to look at : What __init__ and self do on Python?
