I've found myself incorporating many of these naturally over time as well.

Another fantastic video, thanks!

Inheritance is good if you have some base data that all similar classes should share. I don't believe methods should be inherited. In that case it should be abstract methods which need implementations, but work under the premise that "these are required to work". That is in my opinion the most sane way of using inheritance. At my job, there are some massive inheritance issues, where one class might have three ancestors through inheritance. It's honestly awful, but it's basically something that people who knew how to write code but not structure code made, and now we're suffering from the consequences much later. We're working on modernizing the code base and improving it, but we'll still be left with a lot of legacy code.

Consistently good videos covering topics in a sensical way with examples reasonable enough to be relatable but not overly complex for explaining the subject matter. Great job. Would love to see you make some more "difficult" testing-related videos dealing with concepts like async sqlalchemy sessions and the many other difficulties that arise with testing asynchronous code. It's one of the areas where I feel least confident and most "Google a lot of stuff until things begin working" and I'd like to get away from that feeling, but it seems resources surrounding these topics aren't great currently.

I did all your tips in my last refactoring and it's working wonders 😂 A sane combination of functional and oop is actually great for writing well-structured code without crazy side-effects! 😄 One thing about turning behavior-oriented classes into raw functions: If you wanna do dependency injection and duck typing via protocols, it's really essential to represent your set of functions as a class because it's way more cohesive than passing each function separately (really helps readabity). And moreover something like attributes is necessary to store the handle to each dependency instance. But for the rest of the video, I totally agree 😁

About inheritance: One more usage of it is for making C/C++ classes integrate better in a Python program. Depending on how the C/C++ side is implemented, inheriting from these, or creating a class to wrap around them, might actually benefit the simplicity and readability of your code.

The best strategy in life, not only in programming, has been expressed once in an interview with Bruce Lee. He said one should study martial arts (not just one) and from each of them take what works for one. Take it and from then on develop it. This is by far the best advice one can give in any walk of life: Take the best out of it and develop from now on. Therefore mixing different styles of programming should be standard, not something frowned upon. After all, a hammer is not the answer to all questions, so to speak.

I moved from C++ to Java in 96. OO was the bible. Things changed when Dungeon Siege released and ECS came to the forefront in my world. Had to go back to OO when DI tools like Hibernate and Spring became popular. I am retired from software development now and have come to Python late. Love your explanations. Most especially when it comes to inheritance and when to choose 'has a' over 'is a'.

Functional programming in not about using functions, it's more about stateless, function composition, memorizing, recursion and closures =) FP not easy to read and python is not great for FP. This video in more about procedure programming. When choosing between classes and functions keep in mind that under the hood python functions are just class instances with only (practically) call method :) I don't think it's a great idea to convert methods to functions, it could work, but you loosing internal state of class. And if your functions changes your classes state, or you have some global states - that's not FP at all =)

I'm kinda new to python, and tbh I see a lot of code that people say it's "more pythonic" that for me is just more complicated to read. I've seen some list comprehensions that look like RegEx and took me a second to understand. And a lot of what you talked here reminded me of how Django works, using classes (models) for data and mixing it with functional programming for views (even though you can use classes for views also).

This is a really good video. Only thing I'd say I disagreed with is separating classes by data vs behavior. In theory this sounds nice, but when I get into a larger project I almost always need some of my data focused classes to be able to do some various behaviors. I think separating those out too much from each other could pose other problems. All about balance though

I can see how Java gets a lot of heat for how things are done. When I started studying computer science in 1999, no surprise, Java was all the rage. Fortunately I had worked with Delphi before (a natural step up from my Turbo Pascal days in DOS), so I was able to tell apart what disadvantages are specific to Java and what to OOP in general. I have moved away to mostly working in C nowadays since I work as an embedded developer (never done C++), but I use Python for tools that make my life easier. That's why I watch your videos. When appropriate, I sometimes follow a semi-OOP approach in C, where I define a struct holding all data of that "object" and pass this (well, a pointer to it) to various functions that work on this data, much like the self parameter in an object's method in Python. I even call the parameter "self" most of the time. 😅

I wouldn't call data classes OOP and I wouldn't call any functions FP. Functional programming would be more about not mutating data class objects, not avoiding the usage of them. Functional programming would be writing functions that promise not to mutate their inputs if passed by reference, and don't have side effects that get consumed by external logic. I'm not advocating for a certain style, just want to make it clear that class != OOP and function != FP, the styles are more about the constraints you put on yourself and the patterns that emerge from doing so. They are not about using or not using certain constructs, though certain styles do tend to lean more heavily on certain constructs like a preference for tuples over lists (to give a Python example) in FP because they enforce certain principles.

No, he used a function, therefore its functional programming. /s This has been the play of OOP for years. OOP used to be about so many things(encapsulation, inheritance, etc.). But now that all of those things have been shown to be terrible, its now just 'using classes/objects'.
@Michallote
@Michallote Жыл бұрын
@@Mr7Shane In my personal humble and very inexperienced opinion, Classes are the best single thing that allows you to store complex hierarchical data. Because you can have a very clear and defined level of control of what is stored in the class. And you can have the information you need not just as primitive types but as custom objects that enforce certain things about the data that simplifies managing them later. However behaviour oriented classes are so cumbersome and often feel unnecessary when you don't have variations of the methods (writing unnecessary preambles to each functions and such). So unless you need to define custom behaviour for each different object I would avoid classes all together in favour of funcions. Whst I like about Python is that it allows the user to do multiple paradigms without too much effort. Exploiting the advantages of different approaches and such

1. 7:07 you mention PaymentProcessor could be a module. When would you write a class as a module? Would the api_key then be a module scoped global variable? 2. 12:00 sounds like a reason to do dependency injection is so it's easier to test, are there other reasons? 3. It looks like we are polluting the function argument list when dependency injection pulls things from within order_food into it's argument list. What if we wanted to test more items, the argument list is going to grow to contain other business entities, as many as we want to test.

I would add: Use immutable data structures where-ever possible. e.g. dataclass(frozen=True) or tuple[Thing, ...] instead of list[Thing]. Do, if possible, not use a lot of getter/setter methods, but prefer to create new instances with the altered attributes. Immutability, delegation instead of inheritance, functional methods (no side-effects), and classmethod-factories that make the code easy to read and understand. Changeable class attributes are particularly a pain to test, because the control paths quickly factorize and become insurmountable.

This is seriously thoughtful stuff, I especially loved the part about not being locked into an OOP or functional style. It's always better to use the right tool for the job. What I didn't agree with as much was about classes being data or behavioral orientated. I always thought it was the other way around - that classes make more sense when you have data and behavior that are tightly coupled (say, a 2 year old dog playing fetch.) What do you think?
@mateusb09

I'd say splitting data and behavior is useful in some circumstances. It can be a lot easier to have a class which manages such objects instead of the objects themselves doing all of the work. I'd say one of the primary reasons why you'd want to have methods in a data class is when it has data you don't want to expose publically. In which case I'd prefer if that method had an accompanying interface.

Would have been nice to also mention the terms "pure core" and "side effects". Especially the way the code should be organised. Haskel is probably one of the best examples. It allows I/O operations only in the "main" context. Hence all that unpredictability that I/O has is located in a "thin top layer" (easier to debug). The core must be immutable - the input gets transformed and returned at the output without any side effects. Same input generates same output no matter how many times that function is called. For dynamic programming languages there is also the PFAAO design pattern which is quite helpful. Writing tests for "pure" code is always a joy because it is really straight forward. Personally, I'm coming from more of a RoR background. Wouldn't say that Python is that great with FP. I think that Ruby does a much better job at FP but it has its own downsides (i.e: there are no native immutable data structures). After learning a bit of Scala, I was able to understand that 95% of the Ruby projects I've ever seen were done in a classical imperative way that mixes the stateful with the stateless and then gets really messy over time. PS: FP is a style. Can be very well achieved in any OOP language if FP principles are well understood and followed (ofc if we ignore the type system altogether which to me is probably Scala's best selling point).
@enkryp
@enkryp Жыл бұрын
With all due respect, the first example is not a combination of FP and OOP. Here's an exemplification: "2" is an object in Python, and print() is a function. But when we write "print(2 + 2)" we don't "combine FP and OOP". It is just old good imperative code. When we put imperative code into a function, we don't do "functional programming" just because of that. Functional programming is a quite special thing: it's a programming via function composition. Likewise, when we put our code into a method, this doesn't make our code object-oriented. OOP assumes certain specific principles (encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism), without them it's all just using classes as C-like data structures.

So is it worth using this style of coding when not many people seem to use it ?

Arjan, I'd love to hear your feedback about a principle that I've used: That is, don't make a class unless you're going to need multiple instances of that class. I can think of one exception--a dataclass which has lots of instance variables. Otherwise, it seems like just using functions would be simpler. What to you tihnk? P.S. I love your videos. Your explanations are very clear and well thought out. Thanks!!

There’s a pattern called singleton which contradicts this principle. Most configs/settings you know in frameworks are singletons.

My opinion's become that OOP isn't bad, there's just a lot of bad OOP code out there. A lot of the principles of OOP are sound, but they fall apart when you mindlessly apply them, and the same is true for FP. Someone who writes an AbstractSingletonFactoryFactory would also write some pretty heinous functional code, because the problem isn't the paradigm, but the person who applies the paradigm without thinking about their design first.

I have a question about tip 2. If its not recommended to combine data and behavior classes, wouldnt we be against whath POO proposes about attributes and methods?

This guy does create a lot of object oriented code, sometimes importing a couple of functions in a python script is all you need

Separating classes to either mostly contain data but little behaviour (like structs) or to contain behaviour but little data (like functions), but preferably not both; and try not to use inheritance. Those must be some of the most unOOPish OOP-tips I have ever heard... 😃

I still struggle with OOP because my primary education was completed before OOP became popular in undergraduate courses. I learned to keep related functions together in a module. This was a bit like a class but not quite. Do you have any tips on how I can get more proficient in being able to wrap my brain around OO design? I've found Arjan's videos to be quite helpful in helping me get a bit better with OOP -- and with Python in general -- both of which are helpful!

Check out Sandi Metz and her talks "Nothing is something" and "All the little things". Two of my favourite talks on OOP. Also, her book "Practical object oriented design in Ruby" is pretty good if you like reading.

@dataclasses are not OOP in my opinion, it is an implementation of Product Types/records. A behavior focus class isn't much of a class either, it would be better described as a module. OOP starts with inheritance, IMHO.

I noticed you sometimes use the UML class diagrams to explain some OOP patterns (e.g. adapter pattern). I would love, if you would explain how to read those diagrams on some examples. I can't follow them in other videos.
