Can We Add Objects the Way We Do for Numbers?

Abstrakt

When we define our own classes in Python, they often don’t behave like built-in types especially when we try to use operators like +. In this short talk, we’ll look at how to fix that by using Python’s special methods. With a hands-on example using \_\_add\_\_ , we’ll see how to make our objects work the way we expect, and why this improves code readability and maintainability. A useful tool in your Python toolkit, even if you're not writing mathematical code.
