python __rep__ code example
Example 1: __repr__ or __str__
very briefly
- The default implementation is useless (it’s hard to think of one which wouldn’t be, but yeah)
- __repr__ goal is to be unambiguous
- __str__ goal is to be readable
- Container’s __str__ uses contained objects’ __repr__

Example 2: python __repr__
class Person:
name = ""
age = 0
def __init__(self, personName, personAge):
self.name = personName
self.age = personAge
def __repr__(self):
return {'name':self.name, 'age':self.age}
def __str__(self):
return 'Person(name='+self.name+', age='+str(self.age)+ ')'
