python class tutorial code example

Example 1: how to make a class in python

class Person:
  def __init__(self, _name, _age):
    self.name = _name
    self.age = _age
   
  def sayHi(self):
    print('Hello, my name is ' + self.name + ' and I am ' + self.age + ' years old!')
    
p1 = Person('Bob', 25)
p1.sayHi() # Prints: Hello, my name is Bob and I am 25 years old!

Example 2: create and use python classes

class Mammal:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

    def walk(self):
        print(self.name + " is going for a walk")


class Dog(Mammal):
    def bark(self):
        print("bark!")


class Cat(Mammal):
    def meow(self):
        print("meow!")


dog1 = Dog("Spot")
dog1.walk()
dog1.bark()
cat1 = Cat("Juniper")
cat1.walk()
cat1.meow()

Example 3: python define class

class uneclasse():
  def __init__(self):
    pass
  def something(self):
    pass
xx = uneclasse()
xx.something()

Example 4: python classes

class Student:
  def __init__(self, id, name, age):
    self.name = name
    self.id = id
    self.age = age
  
  def greet(self):
    print(f"Hello there.\nMy name is {self.name}")
    
  def get_age(self):
    print(f"I am {self.age}")
    
  def __add__(self, other)
  	return Student(
      self.name+" "+other.name,
      self.id + " "+ other.id,
      str(self.age) +" "+str(other.age))
    
p1 = Student(1, "Jay", 19)
p2 = Student(2, "Jean", 22)
p3 = Student(3, "Shanna", 32)
p4 = Student(4, "Kayla", 23)


result = p1+p3

Example 5: how to declare a class in python

class ClassName(object): #"(object)" isn't mandatory unless this class inherit from another
  	def __init__(self, var1=0, var2):
    
    	#the name of the construct must be "__init__" or it won't work
    	#the arguments "self" is mandatory but you can add more if you want 
    	self.age = var1
    	self.name = var2
    
    	#the construct will be execute when you declare an instance of this class
    
  	def otherFunction(self):
    	
        #the other one work like any basic fonction but in every methods,
    	#the first argument (here "self") return to the class in which you are

Example 6: what is an object in python

#objects are collections of data
