Decorators in Python are designed to be reusable, meaning you can apply the same decorator to many different functions. This flexibility allows you to add the same behavior—such as logging, timing, or validation—to multiple functions without repeating code. By defining a decorator once and then applying it wherever needed, you keep your codebase clean and consistent. When a decorator is applied to more than one function, each function will receive the additional functionality provided by the decorator, but the core logic of each function remains unchanged. This approach is especially powerful for cross-cutting concerns like debugging or monitoring, where you want to add the same action to various parts of your program.
