Just an example, using your class and method names:

class any:
    def __init__(self):
        self.spam = 0
    def what(self):
        print self.spam
    def this(self):
        self.spam = self.spam + 1
    def unknown(self):
        self.spam = 0

To understand the use of 'self' there, read the standard Python
documentation, especially the sections on classes.  The tutorial is a
good place to start.
