  2. Constructor (object-oriented programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructor_(object...

    In class-based, object-oriented programming, a constructor (abbreviation: ctor) is a special type of function called to create an object.It prepares the new object for use, often accepting arguments that the constructor uses to set required member variables.

  3. this (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/This_(computer_programming)

    In some languages, for example C++, Java, and Raku this or self is a keyword, and the variable automatically exists in instance methods. In others, for example, Python, Rust, and Perl 5, the first parameter of an instance method is such a reference. It needs to be specified explicitly.

  4. Instance variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instance_variable

    class Dog: def __init__ (self, breed): self. breed = breed # instance variable # dog_1 is an object # which is also an instance of the Dog class dog_1 = Dog ("Border Collie") In the above Python code, the instance variable is created when an argument is parsed into the instance, with the specification of the breed positional argument.

  5. Strongly typed identifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strongly_typed_identifier

    Python has data classes which provides equality testing and can be made immutable using the frozen parameter. [21] It overrides the __str__ dunder method. [22] This example implementation includes a static method which can be used to initialize a new instance with a randomly generated universally unique identifier (UUID).

  6. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Methods on objects are functions attached to the object's class; the syntax instance. method (argument) is, for normal methods and functions, syntactic sugar for Class. method (instance, argument). Python methods have an explicit self parameter to access instance data, in contrast to the implicit self (or this) in some other object-oriented ...

  7. Method overriding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_overriding

    The overridden base method must be virtual, abstract, or override. In addition to the modifiers that are used for method overriding, C# allows the hiding of an inherited property or method. This is done using the same signature of a property or method but adding the modifier new in front of it. [6] In the above example, hiding causes the following:

  8. Lazy initialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_initialization

    In computer programming, lazy initialization is the tactic of delaying the creation of an object, the calculation of a value, or some other expensive process until the first time it is needed.

  9. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    In Python, functions are first-class objects that can be created and passed around dynamically. Python's limited support for anonymous functions is the lambda construct. An example is the anonymous function which squares its input, called with the argument of 5:
