what is attributeerror in python code example

Example 1: attributeerror:

# user in the login should be a User Object not the username.

from django.contrib.auth.models import User

def get_django_user_by_username(username):
    """Get the django user
    Args:
        username (str): email id of the user
    Returns:
        object: django user object
    """
    return User.objects.filter(username=username).first()

user = get_django_user_by_username(email)

login(request, user, backend="django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend")

Example 2: attributeerror:

This happens because the scipy module doesn't have any attribute named sparse. That attribute only gets defined when you import scipy.sparse.

Submodules don't automatically get imported when you just import scipy; you need to import them explicitly. The same holds for most packages, although a package can choose to import its own submodules if it wants to. (For example, if scipy/__init__.py included a statement import scipy.sparse, then the sparse submodule would be imported whenever you import scipy.)

Example 3: attribute error python

# If python gives that error , 
# It means that whatever module doesn't have that specific function
# Therefore it can't run that specific function
# Example (recreating the error)

class Thing(object):
    
    def func(self):
        print("Random function was ran from class Thing().")

some_object = Thing()
# This will run properly
some_object.func()
# This won't run and produce the AttributeError.
some_object.some_func()
