Python Phase 2: OOP & Advanced Features

Python Phase 2: OOP & Advanced Features

Welcome to Phase 2 of the Python Learning Roadmap! In this phase, you'll master object-oriented programming (OOP) and Python-specific advanced features that will help you write clean, maintainable, and professional Python code.

What You'll Learn

✅ Classes and objects in Python
✅ Inheritance and method overriding
✅ Property decorators and special methods
✅ Dataclasses (Python 3.10+)
✅ List/dict/set comprehensions
✅ Generator expressions
✅ Decorators basics
✅ Context managers
✅ Type hints fundamentals

Prerequisites

Before starting this phase, you should be comfortable with:

  • Python syntax and basic data types (Phase 1)
  • Functions and control flow
  • Lists, dictionaries, and basic data structures
  • File I/O and exception handling

1. Classes and Objects

Classes are blueprints for creating objects. They encapsulate data (attributes) and behavior (methods) together.

Basic Class Syntax

class User:
    """Represents a user in the system."""
 
    def __init__(self, username: str, email: str) -> None:
        """Initialize a new user."""
        self.username = username
        self.email = email
        self.is_active = True  # Default value
 
    def deactivate(self) -> None:
        """Deactivate this user account."""
        self.is_active = False
 
    def __str__(self) -> str:
        """String representation for users."""
        status = "active" if self.is_active else "inactive"
        return f"User({self.username}, {status})"
 
# Create instances
user1 = User("alice", "alice@example.com")
user2 = User("bob", "bob@example.com")
 
print(user1)  # User(alice, active)
user1.deactivate()
print(user1)  # User(alice, inactive)

Special Methods (Magic Methods)

Python provides special methods that let you customize object behavior:

class BankAccount:
    """Represents a bank account."""
 
    def __init__(self, account_number: str, balance: float = 0.0) -> None:
        self.account_number = account_number
        self.balance = balance
 
    def __str__(self) -> str:
        """User-friendly string representation."""
        return f"Account {self.account_number}: ${self.balance:.2f}"
 
    def __repr__(self) -> str:
        """Developer-friendly representation (for debugging)."""
        return f"BankAccount('{self.account_number}', {self.balance})"
 
    def __eq__(self, other: object) -> bool:
        """Check equality based on account number."""
        if not isinstance(other, BankAccount):
            return NotImplemented
        return self.account_number == other.account_number
 
    def __add__(self, amount: float) -> "BankAccount":
        """Allow adding money with + operator."""
        self.balance += amount
        return self
 
# Usage
account = BankAccount("12345", 1000.0)
print(str(account))   # Account 12345: $1000.00
print(repr(account))  # BankAccount('12345', 1000.0)
 
account + 500  # Add money using +
print(account)  # Account 12345: $1500.00

Common special methods:

  • __init__: Constructor
  • __str__: User-friendly string (used by print())
  • __repr__: Developer representation (used in REPL)
  • __eq__, __lt__, __gt__: Comparison operators
  • __len__: Length (for len())
  • __getitem__, __setitem__: Index access

2. Inheritance and Polymorphism

Inheritance allows classes to inherit attributes and methods from parent classes.

Basic Inheritance

from typing import Optional
 
class Animal:
    """Base class for all animals."""
 
    def __init__(self, name: str, age: int) -> None:
        self.name = name
        self.age = age
 
    def speak(self) -> str:
        """Make a sound (to be overridden)."""
        raise NotImplementedError("Subclasses must implement speak()")
 
    def info(self) -> str:
        """Get animal info."""
        return f"{self.name} is {self.age} years old"
 
class Dog(Animal):
    """A dog is a type of animal."""
 
    def __init__(self, name: str, age: int, breed: str) -> None:
        super().__init__(name, age)  # Call parent constructor
        self.breed = breed
 
    def speak(self) -> str:
        """Dogs bark."""
        return "Woof!"
 
    def fetch(self, item: str) -> str:
        """Dog-specific behavior."""
        return f"{self.name} fetches the {item}"
 
class Cat(Animal):
    """A cat is a type of animal."""
 
    def __init__(self, name: str, age: int, indoor: bool = True) -> None:
        super().__init__(name, age)
        self.indoor = indoor
 
    def speak(self) -> str:
        """Cats meow."""
        return "Meow!"
 
# Polymorphism: different types, same interface
animals: list[Animal] = [
    Dog("Buddy", 5, "Golden Retriever"),
    Cat("Whiskers", 3),
    Dog("Max", 2, "Beagle"),
]
 
for animal in animals:
    print(f"{animal.name} says: {animal.speak()}")
# Buddy says: Woof!
# Whiskers says: Meow!
# Max says: Woof!

Multiple Inheritance and Method Resolution Order (MRO)

class Flyable:
    """Mixin for flying capability."""
 
    def fly(self) -> str:
        return "I can fly!"
 
class Swimmable:
    """Mixin for swimming capability."""
 
    def swim(self) -> str:
        return "I can swim!"
 
class Duck(Animal, Flyable, Swimmable):
    """A duck can fly and swim."""
 
    def speak(self) -> str:
        return "Quack!"
 
duck = Duck("Donald", 2)
print(duck.speak())  # Quack!
print(duck.fly())    # I can fly!
print(duck.swim())   # I can swim!
 
# Check Method Resolution Order
print(Duck.__mro__)
# (<class 'Duck'>, <class 'Animal'>, <class 'Flyable'>,
#  <class 'Swimmable'>, <class 'object'>)

3. Properties and Descriptors

Properties provide a way to customize attribute access while maintaining a clean interface.

Using @property Decorator

class Temperature:
    """Temperature with Celsius and Fahrenheit."""
 
    def __init__(self, celsius: float) -> None:
        self._celsius = celsius  # Private attribute
 
    @property
    def celsius(self) -> float:
        """Get temperature in Celsius."""
        return self._celsius
 
    @celsius.setter
    def celsius(self, value: float) -> None:
        """Set temperature in Celsius with validation."""
        if value < -273.15:
            raise ValueError("Temperature below absolute zero!")
        self._celsius = value
 
    @property
    def fahrenheit(self) -> float:
        """Get temperature in Fahrenheit (computed property)."""
        return self._celsius * 9/5 + 32
 
    @fahrenheit.setter
    def fahrenheit(self, value: float) -> None:
        """Set temperature using Fahrenheit."""
        self.celsius = (value - 32) * 5/9  # Use celsius setter
 
# Usage
temp = Temperature(25)
print(f"{temp.celsius}°C = {temp.fahrenheit}°F")  # 25.0°C = 77.0°F
 
temp.celsius = 30
print(f"{temp.celsius}°C = {temp.fahrenheit}°F")  # 30.0°C = 86.0°F
 
temp.fahrenheit = 32
print(f"{temp.celsius}°C")  # 0.0°C

Class Methods and Static Methods

from datetime import datetime
 
class Person:
    """Person with birth year."""
 
    population = 0  # Class variable
 
    def __init__(self, name: str, birth_year: int) -> None:
        self.name = name
        self.birth_year = birth_year
        Person.population += 1
 
    def get_age(self) -> int:
        """Instance method: needs self."""
        return datetime.now().year - self.birth_year
 
    @classmethod
    def from_birth_date(cls, name: str, birth_date: str) -> "Person":
        """Class method: alternative constructor."""
        year = int(birth_date.split("-")[0])
        return cls(name, year)
 
    @staticmethod
    def is_adult(age: int) -> bool:
        """Static method: doesn't need class or instance."""
        return age >= 18
 
# Usage
person1 = Person("Alice", 1990)
person2 = Person.from_birth_date("Bob", "1985-05-15")  # Class method
 
print(person1.get_age())  # e.g., 36
print(Person.is_adult(person1.get_age()))  # True
print(f"Population: {Person.population}")  # 2

4. Dataclasses (Python 3.10+)

Dataclasses automatically generate special methods for data storage classes.

Basic Dataclass

from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import Optional
 
@dataclass
class Product:
    """Product in an inventory system."""
    name: str
    price: float
    quantity: int = 0
    category: Optional[str] = None
 
    def total_value(self) -> float:
        """Calculate total inventory value."""
        return self.price * self.quantity
 
# Automatic __init__, __repr__, __eq__
product = Product("Laptop", 999.99, 10, "Electronics")
print(product)
# Product(name='Laptop', price=999.99, quantity=10, category='Electronics')
 
print(product.total_value())  # 9999.90

Advanced Dataclass Features

from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from datetime import datetime
 
@dataclass(frozen=True)  # Immutable dataclass
class Point:
    """Immutable 2D point."""
    x: float
    y: float
 
    def distance_from_origin(self) -> float:
        return (self.x**2 + self.y**2) ** 0.5
 
@dataclass
class Order:
    """Customer order with generated fields."""
    customer_id: str
    items: list[Product] = field(default_factory=list)  # Mutable default
    order_date: datetime = field(default_factory=datetime.now)
    order_id: str = field(init=False)  # Generated, not in __init__
 
    def __post_init__(self) -> None:
        """Called after __init__ to set generated fields."""
        self.order_id = f"ORD-{self.customer_id}-{self.order_date.timestamp()}"
 
    def add_item(self, product: Product) -> None:
        self.items.append(product)
 
    def total_cost(self) -> float:
        return sum(p.price * p.quantity for p in self.items)
 
# Usage
order = Order("CUST123")
order.add_item(Product("Mouse", 29.99, 2))
order.add_item(Product("Keyboard", 79.99, 1))
print(order.order_id)  # ORD-CUST123-1737897600.0
print(f"Total: ${order.total_cost():.2f}")  # Total: $139.97

5. Comprehensions

Comprehensions provide a concise way to create lists, dictionaries, and sets.

List Comprehensions

# Basic syntax: [expression for item in iterable if condition]
 
# Without comprehension
squares = []
for x in range(10):
    squares.append(x**2)
 
# With comprehension (cleaner)
squares = [x**2 for x in range(10)]
print(squares)  # [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]
 
# With filtering
even_squares = [x**2 for x in range(10) if x % 2 == 0]
print(even_squares)  # [0, 4, 16, 36, 64]
 
# Nested loops
pairs = [(x, y) for x in range(3) for y in range(3) if x != y]
print(pairs)  # [(0, 1), (0, 2), (1, 0), (1, 2), (2, 0), (2, 1)]
 
# Transform strings
names = ["alice", "bob", "charlie"]
capitalized = [name.title() for name in names]
print(capitalized)  # ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Charlie']

Dictionary Comprehensions

# Basic syntax: {key_expr: value_expr for item in iterable}
 
# Create a mapping of numbers to their squares
squares_dict = {x: x**2 for x in range(6)}
print(squares_dict)  # {0: 0, 1: 1, 2: 4, 3: 9, 4: 16, 5: 25}
 
# Swap keys and values
original = {"a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3}
swapped = {v: k for k, v in original.items()}
print(swapped)  # {1: 'a', 2: 'b', 3: 'c'}
 
# Filter dictionary
scores = {"Alice": 85, "Bob": 92, "Charlie": 78, "David": 95}
high_scorers = {name: score for name, score in scores.items() if score >= 90}
print(high_scorers)  # {'Bob': 92, 'David': 95}

Set Comprehensions

# Basic syntax: {expression for item in iterable}
 
# Unique word lengths
text = "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
word_lengths = {len(word) for word in text.split()}
print(word_lengths)  # {3, 4, 5}
 
# Remove duplicates with transformation
numbers = [1, -2, 3, -4, 5, -1, 2]
absolute_values = {abs(n) for n in numbers}
print(absolute_values)  # {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

Generator Expressions

Generator expressions are like list comprehensions but create iterators (lazy evaluation).

# Syntax: (expression for item in iterable)
# Use parentheses instead of brackets
 
# List comprehension: creates full list in memory
squares_list = [x**2 for x in range(1000000)]  # Uses ~4MB memory
 
# Generator expression: lazy evaluation
squares_gen = (x**2 for x in range(1000000))  # Uses ~80 bytes
 
# Iterate once
for sq in squares_gen:
    if sq > 100:
        print(sq)
        break  # 121
 
# Useful for large datasets
def read_large_file(file_path: str):
    """Generator to read file line by line."""
    with open(file_path) as f:
        # Process lines lazily without loading entire file
        return (line.strip().upper() for line in f if line.strip())
 
# Use in function arguments
total = sum(x**2 for x in range(100))  # No need for extra brackets
print(total)  # 328350

6. Decorators Basics

Decorators are functions that modify the behavior of other functions or classes.

Function Decorators

from functools import wraps
from time import time, sleep
from typing import Callable, Any
 
def timer(func: Callable) -> Callable:
    """Decorator to measure function execution time."""
    @wraps(func)  # Preserve original function metadata
    def wrapper(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any) -> Any:
        start = time()
        result = func(*args, **kwargs)
        end = time()
        print(f"{func.__name__} took {end - start:.4f}s")
        return result
    return wrapper
 
@timer
def slow_function() -> None:
    """A slow function."""
    sleep(1)
    print("Done!")
 
slow_function()
# Done!
# slow_function took 1.0012s

Decorators with Arguments

from typing import Callable, Any
 
def repeat(times: int) -> Callable:
    """Decorator that repeats function execution."""
    def decorator(func: Callable) -> Callable:
        @wraps(func)
        def wrapper(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any) -> Any:
            for _ in range(times):
                result = func(*args, **kwargs)
            return result  # Return last result
        return wrapper
    return decorator
 
@repeat(times=3)
def greet(name: str) -> str:
    message = f"Hello, {name}!"
    print(message)
    return message
 
greet("Alice")
# Hello, Alice!
# Hello, Alice!
# Hello, Alice!

Built-in Decorators

class Circle:
    """Circle with cached area calculation."""
 
    def __init__(self, radius: float) -> None:
        self._radius = radius
 
    @property
    def radius(self) -> float:
        return self._radius
 
    @radius.setter
    def radius(self, value: float) -> None:
        if value < 0:
            raise ValueError("Radius cannot be negative")
        self._radius = value
 
    @staticmethod
    def from_diameter(diameter: float) -> "Circle":
        """Create circle from diameter."""
        return Circle(diameter / 2)
 
    @classmethod
    def unit_circle(cls) -> "Circle":
        """Create a unit circle."""
        return cls(1.0)
 
circle = Circle.unit_circle()
print(circle.radius)  # 1.0

For a complete guide to decorators, see the Python Decorators Deep Dive.


7. Context Managers

Context managers handle resource management (setup/teardown) automatically using the with statement.

Using Built-in Context Managers

# File handling (automatic close)
with open("data.txt", "w") as f:
    f.write("Hello, World!")
# File is automatically closed here
 
# Multiple context managers
with open("input.txt") as infile, open("output.txt", "w") as outfile:
    data = infile.read()
    outfile.write(data.upper())

Creating Custom Context Managers

from typing import Optional
 
class DatabaseConnection:
    """Database connection with automatic cleanup."""
 
    def __init__(self, host: str, port: int) -> None:
        self.host = host
        self.port = port
        self.connection: Optional[str] = None
 
    def __enter__(self) -> "DatabaseConnection":
        """Setup: called when entering 'with' block."""
        print(f"Connecting to {self.host}:{self.port}...")
        self.connection = f"Connection to {self.host}"
        return self
 
    def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb) -> bool:
        """Cleanup: called when exiting 'with' block."""
        print(f"Closing connection to {self.host}...")
        self.connection = None
        # Return False to propagate exceptions, True to suppress
        return False
 
    def query(self, sql: str) -> str:
        """Execute a query."""
        if not self.connection:
            raise RuntimeError("No active connection")
        return f"Result of: {sql}"
 
# Usage
with DatabaseConnection("localhost", 5432) as db:
    result = db.query("SELECT * FROM users")
    print(result)
# Connection automatically closed after block
# Connecting to localhost:5432...
# Result of: SELECT * FROM users
# Closing connection to localhost...

Context Manager Using contextlib

from contextlib import contextmanager
from typing import Iterator
 
@contextmanager
def temporary_setting(config: dict, key: str, value: Any) -> Iterator[None]:
    """Temporarily change a config value."""
    old_value = config.get(key)
    config[key] = value
    try:
        yield  # Code in 'with' block runs here
    finally:
        # Restore original value
        if old_value is None:
            config.pop(key, None)
        else:
            config[key] = old_value
 
# Usage
config = {"debug": False, "timeout": 30}
print(config)  # {'debug': False, 'timeout': 30}
 
with temporary_setting(config, "debug", True):
    print(config)  # {'debug': True, 'timeout': 30}
 
print(config)  # {'debug': False, 'timeout': 30} - restored

8. Type Hints Fundamentals

Type hints improve code readability and enable static type checking with tools like mypy.

Basic Type Hints

from typing import List, Dict, Set, Tuple, Optional, Union
 
# Function annotations
def greet(name: str, age: int) -> str:
    """Greet a person."""
    return f"Hello {name}, you are {age} years old"
 
# Variable annotations
username: str = "alice"
user_id: int = 12345
is_active: bool = True
 
# Collections (old style - Python 3.9+)
from typing import List, Dict
names: List[str] = ["Alice", "Bob", "Charlie"]
scores: Dict[str, int] = {"Alice": 95, "Bob": 87}
 
# Modern style (Python 3.10+)
names: list[str] = ["Alice", "Bob", "Charlie"]
scores: dict[str, int] = {"Alice": 95, "Bob": 87}
coordinates: tuple[float, float] = (10.5, 20.3)

Optional and Union Types

from typing import Optional, Union
 
# Optional[X] is shorthand for Union[X, None]
def find_user(user_id: int) -> Optional[str]:
    """Find user by ID, return None if not found."""
    users = {1: "Alice", 2: "Bob"}
    return users.get(user_id)  # Returns str or None
 
# Union for multiple possible types
def process_id(user_id: Union[int, str]) -> str:
    """Process user ID as int or string."""
    return str(user_id)
 
# Python 3.10+ uses | instead of Union
def process_id_modern(user_id: int | str) -> str:
    """Modern union syntax."""
    return str(user_id)

Type Hints for Classes

from typing import ClassVar
from dataclasses import dataclass
 
@dataclass
class Employee:
    """Employee with type hints."""
    name: str
    employee_id: int
    salary: float
    department: Optional[str] = None
 
    # Class variable (shared across instances)
    company_name: ClassVar[str] = "TechCorp"
 
    def give_raise(self, amount: float) -> None:
        """Increase salary."""
        self.salary += amount
 
    def get_info(self) -> dict[str, str | int | float]:
        """Return employee info as dict."""
        return {
            "name": self.name,
            "id": self.employee_id,
            "salary": self.salary,
        }

Type Aliases

from typing import TypeAlias
 
# Create type aliases for complex types
UserId: TypeAlias = int
Username: TypeAlias = str
UserData: TypeAlias = dict[str, Union[str, int, bool]]
 
def create_user(user_id: UserId, username: Username) -> UserData:
    """Create user data."""
    return {
        "id": user_id,
        "username": username,
        "active": True,
    }

For a complete guide to type hints, see the Type Hints & Typing Deep Dive.


9. Practical Example: Building a Task Manager

Let's combine everything we've learned into a practical example:

from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from datetime import datetime
from typing import Optional, ClassVar
from enum import Enum
 
class Priority(Enum):
    """Task priority levels."""
    LOW = 1
    MEDIUM = 2
    HIGH = 3
    URGENT = 4
 
class Status(Enum):
    """Task status."""
    TODO = "todo"
    IN_PROGRESS = "in_progress"
    DONE = "done"
 
@dataclass
class Task:
    """Represents a task in the task manager."""
    title: str
    description: str = ""
    priority: Priority = Priority.MEDIUM
    status: Status = Status.TODO
    created_at: datetime = field(default_factory=datetime.now)
    completed_at: Optional[datetime] = None
 
    task_count: ClassVar[int] = 0
 
    def __post_init__(self) -> None:
        Task.task_count += 1
 
    def complete(self) -> None:
        """Mark task as completed."""
        self.status = Status.DONE
        self.completed_at = datetime.now()
 
    @property
    def is_overdue(self) -> bool:
        """Check if task is overdue (>7 days old and not done)."""
        if self.status == Status.DONE:
            return False
        age = (datetime.now() - self.created_at).days

10. Best Practices

Use dataclasses for data storage: Reduces boilerplate code
Prefer composition over inheritance: "Has-a" relationships are often clearer than "is-a"
Use type hints: Improves code readability and catches bugs early
Keep comprehensions readable: If it's complex, use a loop instead
Use properties for computed attributes: Maintains clean interface
Follow naming conventions: _private, __name_mangled, public
Use context managers for resources: Ensures proper cleanup
Write docstrings: Document classes and public methods


11. Common Pitfalls

Mutable default arguments: Use field(default_factory=list) in dataclasses
Forgetting self: First parameter of instance methods must be self
Overusing inheritance: Deep inheritance hierarchies are hard to maintain
Complex comprehensions: Break into multiple lines or use loops for clarity
Not using @wraps: Always use functools.wraps in decorators
Modifying lists during iteration: Create a copy first or use list comprehension

# ❌ BAD: Mutable default argument
def add_item(item: str, items: list = []) -> list:
    items.append(item)
    return items
 
# ✅ GOOD: Use None and create new list
def add_item(item: str, items: Optional[list] = None) -> list:
    if items is None:
        items = []
    items.append(item)
    return items
 
# ❌ BAD: Modifying list during iteration
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
for num in numbers:
    if num % 2 == 0:
        numbers.remove(num)  # Skips elements!
 
# ✅ GOOD: Use list comprehension
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
numbers = [num for num in numbers if num % 2 != 0]

Summary and Key Takeaways

In this phase, you learned:

Classes and OOP: Create reusable, organized code with classes and inheritance
Special methods: Customize object behavior with magic methods
Properties: Control attribute access with @property decorator
Dataclasses: Simplify data storage classes with automatic methods
Comprehensions: Write concise, readable transformations for lists, dicts, and sets
Generators: Process large datasets efficiently with lazy evaluation
Decorators: Modify function behavior cleanly and reusably
Context managers: Manage resources safely with with statements
Type hints: Improve code quality with static typing

Practice Exercises

  1. Build a Library System: Create classes for Book, Member, and Library with borrowing/returning functionality
  2. Implement a Decorator: Write a @cache decorator that memoizes function results
  3. Data Processing Pipeline: Use comprehensions and generators to process a large dataset efficiently
