Unique Object
Code
Methods inside the class:
say_meow
;set_name
with thename
argument .
set_name
defines an additional attribute name
and sets the value of the given statement.
self
means that this variable is the class attribute, not the local variable.
Object cat
is created.
We call say_meow
method and change the attribute of the class by referring to cat.hair_color
.
We set 'Princess'
as the name using set_name
method.
class Cat: def say_meow(self): print('Meow') def set_name(self, name): self.name = name print(self.hair_color, 'cat name is', self.name) # Instantiating an object cat = Cat() cat.say_meow() # Creating the unique Ρat cat.hair_color = 'White' cat.set_name('Princess')
Everything was clear?
