17. Properties And Getters/Setters

Use @property to create managed attributes.

Example​

class Person:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self._name = name

    @property
    def name(self):
        return self._name

    @name.setter
    def name(self, value):
        self._name = value

Practice​

Create a Circle class with a property radius and computed property area.

Wrap-Up​

  • Properties make methods feel like attributes.
