Aim: To study and implement Classes and objects and implement inner class, Constructors and Inheritance in Python. Theory: Python is an object-oriented programming language. Almost everything in Python is an object, with its properties and methods. A Class is like an object constructor, or a "blueprint" for creating objects. The init () Function: The examples above are classes and objects in their simplest form, and are not really useful in real life applications. To understand the meaning of classes we have to understand the built- in init () function. All classes have a function called init (), which is always executed when the class is being initiated. The str () Function: The str () function controls what should be returned when the class object is represented as a string. Object Methods: Objects can also contain methods. Methods in objects are functions that belong to the object.
The self Parameter:
The self parameter is a reference to the current instance of the class, and is used to access variables that belong to the class. The pass Statement: class definitions cannot be empty, but if you for some reason have a class definition with no content, put in the pass statement to avoid getting an error. Program with output: Conclusion:(LO3) We have learned classes and objects in python language.
