Exercise 1: Python Classes and Objects

  • Class definition syntax: class class_name: ...
  • Attributes are variables that belong to a class.
  • Attributes are public and can be accessed using the dot (.) operator.
  • ClassDocstring: a brief description of the class.
  • Creating an object: my_object = MyClass()
  • State, behavior, and identity of an object: example of a class Dog.

Exercise 2: The __init__() Function, The self Parameter, and The __str__() Function

  • Method: a function associated with an object.
  • self is a pointer to the current object.
  • __init__() function: initializes the object's attributes.
  • __str__() function: returns a string representation of the object.
  • Experiment 1: creating a Person class with __init__() and myfunc() methods.
  • Experiment 2: using the __str__() function.
  • Experiment 3: using mysillyobject and abc instead of self.

Exercise 3: Accessing Attributes and Methods

  • Attributes and methods are accessed using the dot (.) operator.
  • Modifying properties on objects: my_object.age = 40
  • Deleting object properties: del my_object.age
  • Deleting objects: del my_object
  • The pass statement: when a class definition has no content.

Exercise 4: Python Inheritance

  • Inheritance: a class that inherits all the methods and properties from another class.
  • Parent class: the class being inherited from.
  • Child class: the class that inherits from another class.
  • Syntax: class ChildClass(ParentClass): ...
  • Experiment 1: creating a Person class and a Student class that inherits from Person.
  • Experiment 2: using the super() function.
  • Experiment 3: adding properties and methods to the Student class.

Exercise 5: Different types of Python Inheritance

  • Single inheritance: a child class inherits from only one parent class.
  • Multiple inheritances: a child class inherits from multiple parent classes.
  • Multilevel inheritance: a child class inherits from a parent class that inherits from another class.
  • Hierarchical inheritance: more than one derived class is created from a single base class.
  • Hybrid inheritance: a combination of multiple types of inheritance.

Exercise 6: Python Polymorphism:1

  • Polymorphism: methods/functions/operators with the same name that can be executed on many objects or classes.
  • Class polymorphism: methods with the same name in different classes.
  • Experiment 1: different classes with the same method: Car, Boat, and Plane classes with move() methods.
  • Experiment 2: inheritance class polymorphism.### Classes and Objects
  • A class called Vehicle can be created with child classes Car, Boat, and Plane that inherit its properties and methods.
  • The Car class can be empty, but it still inherits brand, model, and move() from Vehicle.
  • The Boat and Plane classes also inherit brand, model, and move() from Vehicle, but they override the move() method.
  • Polymorphism allows for executing the same method for all classes, even if they have different implementations.

Polymorphism

  • Polymorphism is the ability of an object to take on multiple forms.
  • It allows for different classes to respond to the same method call.
  • Polymorphism can be achieved through method overriding, where a child class provides a different implementation of a method inherited from its parent class.

Operator Overloading

  • Operator overloading is a type of polymorphism where the same operator performs different operations depending on the operands.
  • Examples of operator overloading include:
    • The + operator, which can be used for arithmetic addition, string concatenation, or list extension.
    • The * operator, which can be used for multiplication or string repetition.

File Handling

  • The open() function is used to create a new file or open an existing file.
  • The open() function takes two parameters: the filename and the mode (e.g., r for read, w for write, a for append, x for create).
  • The open() function can be used with various modes, such as r for reading, w for writing, and a for appending.
  • The close() function is used to close a file.

Encapsulation

  • Encapsulation is the concept of hiding the implementation details of an object from the outside world.
  • Encapsulation is achieved through the use of private and public members.
  • Private members are denoted by a single underscore (_) and can only be accessed within the class.
  • Public members are denoted by no underscore and can be accessed from outside the class.
  • Getter and setter methods are used to access and modify private members.
  • The @property decorator is used to define a getter method.
  • The @property_name.setter decorator is used to define a setter method.

Abstraction

  • Abstraction is the concept of showing only the necessary information to the outside world while hiding the implementation details.
  • Abstraction is achieved through the use of abstract classes and interfaces.
  • An abstract class is a class that cannot be instantiated and is used as a base class for other classes.
  • An abstract class must have at least one abstract method.
  • An abstract method is a method that is declared but not implemented.
  • A concrete class is a class that provides an implementation for all the abstract methods of its parent class.

NumPy Modules

  • NumPy is a Python library used for working with arrays.
  • NumPy is used to provide an array object that is up to 50x faster than traditional Python lists.
  • The array object in NumPy is called ndarray.
  • NumPy can be installed using pip: pip install numpy.
  • NumPy can be imported using import numpy as np.
  • NumPy arrays can be created using the array() function.
  • NumPy arrays can be 0-D, 1-D, 2-D, or 3-D.
  • The ndim attribute returns the number of dimensions of a NumPy array.
  • Array indexing is used to access elements of a NumPy array.
  • Accessing elements of a 2-D or 3-D array requires using comma-separated integers representing the dimension and the index of the element.Here are the study notes in detailed bullet points:
  • Experiment #14: Accessing the third element of the second array of the first array*
  • Use arr[0, 1, 2] to access the third element of the second array of the first array
  • The first number represents the first dimension, which contains two arrays
  • The second number represents the second dimension, which also contains two arrays
  • The third number represents the third dimension, which contains three values
  • Negative Indexing*
  • Use negative indexing to access an array from the end
  • Example: arr[1, -1] returns the last element of the 2nd dimension
  • NumPy Array Slicing*
  • Slicing in Python means taking elements from one given index to another given index
  • Use [*start*:*end*] to specify the range
  • Use [*start*:*end*:*step*] to specify the step
  • If you don't pass start, it's considered 0
  • If you don't pass end, it's considered the length of the array in that dimension
  • If you don't pass step, it's considered 1
  • Experiment #1-#8: Array Slicing*
  • Examples of slicing:
    • arr[1:5] returns elements from index 1 to 5 (excluding 5)
    • arr[4:] returns elements from index 4 to the end
    • arr[:4] returns elements from the beginning to index 4 (excluding 4)
    • arr[1:5:2] returns every other element from index 1 to 5 (excluding 5)
  • Generate Random Number*
  • Use from numpy import random to work with random numbers
  • Example: x = random.randint(100) generates a random integer from 0 to 100
  • Pandas Tutorial*
  • Pandas is a Python library for data analysis
  • Pandas can:
    • Analyze data
    • Delete rows that are not relevant or contain wrong values
    • Clean data
  • The source code for Pandas is located on GitHub
  • Experiment #1-#10: Pandas*
  • Examples of using Pandas:
    • Creating a DataFrame from a dictionary
    • Creating a Series from a list
    • Adding labels to a DataFrame
    • Locating rows and columns in a DataFrame
    • Loading files into a DataFrame
    • Plotting data using Matplotlib
  • Matplotlib*
  • Matplotlib is a low-level graph plotting library in Python
  • Matplotlib is used for visualization
  • Examples of using Matplotlib:
    • Plotting x and y points
    • Plotting without lines
    • Using markers (e.g., 'o' for circle, '*' for star)
    • Using formats (e.g., 'o:r' for circle marker with red color)
    • Setting marker size and color
    • Setting line style and color
    • Using hexadecimal color values and color names
