Python OOP Tutorial 4: Inheritance - Creating Subclasses

In this Python Object-Oriented Tutorial, we will be learning about inheritance and how to create subclasses. Inheritance allows us to inherit attributes and methods from a parent class. This is useful because we can create subclasses and get all of the functionality of our parents class, and have the ability to overwrite or add completely new functionality without affecting the parents class in any ways. Let's get started.

Corey talks about inheritance of classes in this video. 1. What is inheritence? It is a method that allows us to create a new class that shares the same attributes and method with the original function, and add some extra functionality to the new class. It also does not disturb the original class. 2. How to make a class inherit from another class? class Developer(Employee): 3. Structure of classes and subclasses. When we input a function to a subclass, python follows the 'method resolution order', which is the chain of classes that it goes through to find what the method is. All classes have the built-in group of methods and attributes as their primary order. 4. How to initiate the subclass so that it can handle more information than its original class can? There are 2 ways. first, using the super method as follows and pass in the arguments in interest. super.__init__() Second, call the parent's init method explicitly and pass in the arguments in interest. Employee.init(self, first, last, ) 5. Useful tools when exploring the inheritance system. .isinstance(instance, class) This method returns the boolean value of whether an instance belongs to a calss .issubclass(subclass, class) This method returns the boolean value of whether a class has inherited from the second class. 6. Example of class inheritance Whisky library ++ when setting a default value for an ungiven argument, avoid using an empty mutable data type. That's a topic for another video.

[@PerfectSwingDance]

If you're wondering and don't know why he didn't use default params like so: employees = [] (timing 11:24), you can consider the following scenario: Just create two managers without passing employee list in it. Add to one of them (via add_emp(self, emp)) new developer instance. Then print (print_emps) for both of them and you will see that one affects the other. This leads to unexpected behaviour. That's why he had to do so

[@user-pk4cc1be8n]

yes! but why? I am confused.

[@pierreardouin6441]

In python, when you state a=b it means you identify a to b and then they share the same id. It's not a big deal in general but when b is mutable (like a list or set) and you modify it (with append, add etc), then a is modified too. Same problem occurs when you duplicate with *, for example if you want a 4*5 2dim-list full of 0s, it's a bad idea to use [[0]*5]*4, cause it creates indeed what you expect but all rows are identified thus if you modify, say, the [2][3] element, then [0][3], [1][3] and [3][3] are modified too, which, usually, is not the expected behaviour. The proper definition for our list would be [[0]*5 for _ in range(4)].

[@CorretorAlyssonGomes]

That being said, would this one be a good statement to substitute all the if...else structure at 11:25? self.employees = [] if not employees else employees

[@sand9577]

I'm a mechanical engineer, whose career died way before COVID dropped the last ton of dirt on top of its grave. I've been trying to re-skill my self into other industries of Mechanical Engineering, to learn some more process design stuff and migrate there; I like this Mechanical Engineering thing and I'm not about to give up. But those Mechanical Engineering courses are so incredible expensive, they are not meant for "outsiders" like me. Not only those courses are expensive, they are at times shallow and a sales pitch for: "tell your company to buy this other course where we go into greater detail. By the way, these other courses are on this other city so you can travel on company's dime and get paid to learn." It gets really expensive, and the instructor himself said the courses are not enough to break into that industry either way. The courses are meant to line the instructor pockets and pad the attendee resumes on their company. On the other hand, all the videos and resources I'm finding about coding, computer science and its kin; are not only FREE! they have depth, content and quality that I haven't seen in courses costing thousands of dollars in fancy Hotels. Corey Schafner, thank you so much for all of these Python courses. I'm beginning to entertain the idea of trying to migrate into coding or data science. I've always coded in ME and I have all the math either way. But...it's only a pipe dream. If I'm not able to get a job in ME after 2 years freelancing to scrape by, and having 8 years of experience as a Mechanical Engineer. I sincerely doubt anyone will accept an outsider into Information Technologies armed with youtube videos, Coursera certifications and zero years of coding. Once again, thank you for the work you put into these videos. And I really wish I could send something your way other than this self pitying rambling.

[@rajaspydey]

Am 29 and have 8 years of experience in civil engineering, I didn’t liked coding in school and preferred CE over CS because my dads an construction contractor and no teacher actually taught me good. They were like include is something that all C programs should have and so you just memorise it. Never really taught about what’s binary and hexadecimals and taught us just how to do the conversion while it’s actually counting with 2 fingers and 6 fingers. After joining college I got an internet connection in home. Bought a mobile (Nokia N96)and tried to customise it. It all started there. My thirst for this. In fact python is the first code I used. Even though it wasn’t what I typed. I learnt swift for two weeks in lockdown. And kinda just like you bad marriage gave me anxiety, depression and other freebies that comes along with it. And COVID gave me the final blow. Am without job from Nov 2019 and still making my 60+ yo dad do business for me (small business so too much manual labor) After meeting psychiatrist I realised I should follow my passion. Eventhough I like CE I always wanted to make apps for construction industry which is still kinda old school and the existing ones are for big million dollar infra projects and doesn’t suit small businesses and our country. So with Excel & Apple Shortcuts app I made mini apps to suit my needs and it kinda worked. But the problem is adding more modules to it became time consuming because it wasn’t designed to do what I was doing. So I gave myself 6 months more to become an app and game developer. Now came here to learn python because of web scraping needs (for some background check to get rid of bad marriage) and I did it. So my first exposure to code is python and the first code I typed all by myself is python. We are in this together buddy. Keep learning on holidays and free time as side project. You will succeed. I have to take break because in work I don’t get time to do all these even on sundays. Am not sure what am talking now or what I said is appropriate. But keep in mind that you are not alone. Just don’t give up. And act fast I have been fiddling with basics of programming past few year and drop it, then start again. Instead just keep learning even if it’s a very slow pace. Just don’t give up. ALL THE BEST

[@rajatsharma2496]

There is bug in line 27 28 java developer has more Salary than python developer 😂..

[@ankitbiradar8599]

Why do we need to implement super.__init__() in Developer. Developer already has these variables as it has inherited them from employee. What is the need for stating them explicitly again.

[@BookOfSaints]

I'd also like to know. I'm sure there is a reason, I am just curious! Thanks.

[@danielschmidt7054]

super() is needed if you want to add code to the inherited function. If you try his example without it, you completely overwrite Employee.__init__() and the other attributes (first, last, etc) are not available to Developer.

[@ShovelShovel]

its because when you define __init__() in Developer it overrode the __init__() method so it doesn't actually inherit the __init__() from Employee anymore and those variables are no longer defined for Developer. so in your __init__() method in Developer you need to call the __init__() from Employee using super() or Employee.__init__(self).

[@pinochska]

Wow, truly great teacher

[@3kelvinhong]

I think it is because you want to add prog_lang argument to it but you can't just "add" up it, so you need to rewrite the (first, last, pay) and then now you can just add (prog_lang) to it.

Hi Corey. Thanks for the video. I didn't get the below part: class Managers(Employee): def __init__(self,first,last,pay,employees=None): Employee.__init__(self,first,last,pay) self.employees=employees Here you are instantiating as: mgr1=Manager(' Sue','Smith',90000,[dev1]) But 'dev1' is an object(dev1=Developer('Corey','Schafer',50000,'Python') not a single entity(value). What values are getting passed in the list to 'mgr1'. Also after doing the same things, I am not able to print the employees using: def print_emps(self): method. I am getting:[] whenever I am trying to print. PS: I AM USING PYTHON 2.7.12. Thanks for the help.

[@sdram111]

Hi Corey, am also having this doubt. Could you please answer to this question.

[@amitbisht6972]

[Ayush Gupta] dev1 = Developer('Corey','Schafer',50000,'Python') the above line creates the object of Developer class or instantiate the Developer class and you can pass the objects as list it, carries all the info with it. and about print_emps() i think you are just printing emp which corresponds to the object of developer class, you must do emp.fullname() which will call fullname method and is equivalent to dev1.fullname() or dev2.fullname() if it is there I hope this helps you understand .

[@Sikkandarsulaiman]

First I'll clarify about your print_emps(self) Sure you would have the statement ----------- for emp in self.employees: print emp ----------- inside your print_emps(self) You're getting this because you're printing the object itself, it leads to print the address of particular instance and not all its corresponding attributes. Thats the reason Corey mentioned to print the full name. Then, for a Python list, it can store an object. Of course objects are single entities. But remember its an instance, rather than an entity thats why you should print values associated with the instances and not the instances itself

[@gautamj7450]

It is as if we would say that it is normal for politicians to make 200k a year, because they have higher responsabilities and values, that's not corrent. Same with mainstream journalists: they are well paid activists, they bring no value and their sole responsability is to bs their viewers while looking really moral and deeply outraged. They are worthless .

@@MMABeijing No, they bring big value, which other people want pay for. If something is more desirable then it is better paid. Market rules.

@@MMABeijing It's unfair that somebody who do not work gets free money which we all have to give him in taxes. It's unfair when someone has no skills, no productivity and he want more money because he "deserves" it. No. If you won't work for it, you will not have it. That is fair.

@@denisds130 I would say that everybody , including lawyers/politicians/mainstream journalists are part of the market as a rational actor would/could decide to opt for those professions. My experience in IT (in telecommunications) had me witness very skilled programmers stuck in engineering work where there was little chance of promotions while a few people who could not make it in their technical work opted for working as project managers because it was in fact the easy way up. This was a major reason why there was a major and growing dissatisfaction within the R&D teams within *okia's team that I interviewed. At the same time that situation was dealt totally differently within Huawei where team managers and project managers had to have made their arms and proven excellent before they were put in a position of management. In that respect Huawei was doing a better job at dealing with a situation that was unfair from the perspective of the engineers interested in research and who wanted to work within a company where research and researchers would be the hear and sould of the organisation. I see your point, hopefully this longer post lets you see my original point better.

This is hands down the cleanest and most concise explanation of class inheritance I've ever seen. I was never sure what super did throughout my entire computer science degree (I'm stupid) but this cleared it up nicely in a 20min vid. Don't stay in school kids!
