You are given a Python function `to_df` that loads a recall file and returns it as a pandas DataFrame. The recall file is a text file with a specific format, containing recall information.

The function `to_df` takes in a single argument:
- `path` (Path): A Path object representing the path to the recall file.

The function returns a pandas DataFrame that represents the recall information.

The recall file format is as follows:
- Each line in the file represents a recall, and each recall consists of space-separated values.
- The values in each recall line represent different attributes of the recall.
- The attributes of a recall are as follows (in order):
    - docid (str): A unique identifier for the document.
    - score (float): The score associated with the recall.
    - n_items (int): The number of items associated with the recall.

Your task is to write the implementation of the static method `from_line(line: str) -> Recall` in the `Recall` class, which is used in the `to_df` function.

The `Recall` class has the following attributes:
- docid (str): The unique identifier for the document.
- score (float): The score associated with the recall.
- n_items (int): The number of items associated with the recall.

You need to implement the `from_line` static method in the `Recall` class. This method takes in a string `line` and returns a `Recall` object with the corresponding attribute values.

Implement the `from_line` method and complete the `to_df` function to correctly load the recall file as a pandas DataFrame.

Sure, I can help you with that. Here's a rough outline of how you could implement the `Recall` class and the `to_df` function:

```python
import pandas as pd

class Recall:
    def __init__(self, docid, score, n_items):
        self.docid = docid
        self.score = score
        self.n_items = n_items

    @staticmethod
    def from_line(line):
        # parse the line into the attributes
        parts = line.split()
        docid, score, n_items = parts
        return Recall(docid, float(score), int(n_items))

def to_df(path):
    with open(path, 'r') as f:
        lines = f.readlines()

    # create a list of Recall objects from the lines
    recalls = [Recall.from_line(line) for line in lines]

    # create a pandas DataFrame from the list
    return pd.DataFrame(recalls)
```

This is a simple example, and you'll need to adjust it to match your actual code. Note that this code assumes that the file is properly formatted and that each line has exactly three values separated by spaces. You'll also need to handle any errors or exceptions that may occur during the file reading or conversion.

Sure, here is the implementation of the `from_line` static method in the `Recall` class and the `to_df` function:

```python
import pandas as pd
from typing import Union
from pathlib import Path

class Recall:
    def __init__(self, docid: str, score: float, n_items: int):
        self.docid = docid
        self.score = score
        self.n_items = n_items

    @staticmethod
    def from_line(line: str) -> 'Recall':
        attrs = line.split()
        return Recall(attrs[0], float(attrs[1]), int(attrs[2]))

def to_df(path: Union[str, Path]) -> pd.DataFrame:
    recalls = []
    with open(path, 'r') as file:
        for line in file:
            recall = Recall.from_line(line)
            recalls.append(recall)

    df = pd.DataFrame(recalls)
    return df
```

In the `from_line` method, we split the input line by space to get the attributes. We then create a new `Recall` object with these attributes and return it.

In the `to_df` function, we open the recall file and read it line by line. For each line, we create a `Recall` object using the `from_line` method and append it to the `recalls` list. We then create a DataFrame from the `recalls` list and return it.
