what is a class in python 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: declare class python

# To create a simple class:
class Shape:
  	def __init__():
      	print("A new shape has been created!")
      	pass
    
    def get_area(self):
		pass

# To create a class that uses inheritance and polymorphism
# from another class:
class Rectangle(Shape):
  
	def __init__(self, height, width): # The constructor
    	super.__init__()
        self.height = height
    	self.width = width

	def get_area(self):
      	return self.height * self.width

Example 4: 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 5: python class

class Person:#set name of class to call it 
  def __init__(self, name, age):#func set ver
    self.name = name#set name
    self.age = age#set age
   

    def myfunc(self):#func inside of class 
      print("Hello my name is " + self.name)# code that the func dose

p1 = Person("barry", 50)# setting a ver fo rthe class 
p1.myfunc() #call the func and whitch ver you want it to be with

Example 6: what is a class in python

A class is a block of code that holds various functions. Because they
are located inside a class they are named methods but mean the samne
thing. In addition variables that are stored inside a class are named 
attributes. The point of a class is to call the class later allowing you 
to access as many functions or (methods) as you would like with the same
class name. These methods are grouped together under one class name due
to them working in association with eachother in some way.
