Object-Oriented Programming in Python

Attributes AnnotationsAttributes Annotations

Using annotations starting with @ symbol is a special way to define properties.

  • Write @property to define get() method;
  • Write @attribute.setter to define the set() method for the attribute.

We need to do that to explain to Python what these methods are going to be used for.

Note

  • First, define getter @property and after that – setter @attribute.setter;
  • Both methods have the same name, that is equal to the attribute name;
  • Now, to access the private attribute __age outside the class, you can use the cat.age expression;
