python class data members 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: python classes

class Box(object): #(object) ending not required
  def __init__(self, color, width, height): # Constructor: These parameters will be used upon class calling(Except self)
    self.color = color # self refers to global variables that can only be used throughout the class
    self.width = width
    self.height = height
    self.area = width * height
  def writeAboutBox(self): # self is almost always required for a function in a class, unless you don't want to use any of the global class variables
    print(f"I'm a box with the area of {self.area}, and a color of: {self.color}!")

greenSquare = Box("green", 10, 10) #Creates new square
greenSquare.writeAboutBox() # Calls writeAboutBox function of greenSquare object

Example 3: python class definition reminder

class Mapping:
    def __init__(self, iterable):
        self.items_list = []
        self.__update(iterable)

    def update(self, iterable):
        for item in iterable:
            self.items_list.append(item)

    __update = update   # private copy of original update() method

class MappingSubclass(Mapping):
	# MappingSubclass inherits methods and attributes from Mapping
    def update(self, keys, values):
        # provides new signature for update()
        # but does not break __init__()
        for item in zip(keys, values):
            self.items_list.append(item)

Example 4: class python

class A:        # define your class A
.....

class B:         # define your class B
.....

class C(A, B):   # subclass of A and B
  
obj = C() #to create instance
# issubclass(sub, sup) boolean function returns true if the given 
# subclass sub is indeed a subclass of the superclass sup

# isinstance(obj, Class) boolean function returns true if obj is an 
# instance of class Class or is an instance of a subclass of Class

Example 5: How to make a new class in python

#Use the class function and give the class a name
#next use the def __init__() to initilaize and give it some properties.
class Fruits():
  def __init__(self, name, colour, taste):
    self.name = name
    self.colour = colour
    self.taste = taste
#Now create an object by first calling the class
fruit1 = Fruits(apple, red, sweet)
print(fruit1.name)
#this will print the name which is apple
print(fruit1.colour)
#this will print the colour which is red
print(fruit1.taste)
#this will print the taste which is sweet
