Python - Object-Oriented Programming - Different Methods Inside the Class Part 2: Use Cases

The video tutorial explains the three types of methods in Python: instance, class, and static methods. It demonstrates how to define a class with attributes and methods, including a method to add skills with a limit. The tutorial covers the use of class methods for changing class attributes and creating factory methods, as well as static methods for utility functions. By the end, viewers will understand when to use class and static methods in Python.

What are the three types of methods in Python?

• Local, Global, and Nonlocal methods

• Synchronous, Asynchronous, and Hybrid methods

• Public, Private, and Protected methods

• Instance, Class, and Static methods

What is the purpose of the 'limit' attribute in the Developer class?

• To set a maximum age for developers

• To limit the number of skills a developer can have

• To specify the default age for developers

• To define the minimum number of skills required

How can you change the skill limit for a developer?

• By directly modifying the 'limit' attribute

• By using the 'set_limit' instance method

• By using the 'set_limit' class method

• By creating a new Developer instance

What is a factory method in the context of class methods?

• A method that creates new instances of a class

• A method that modifies existing instances

• A method that updates class attributes

• A method that deletes instances

What is the role of the 'from_birthyear' method in the Developer class?

• To update the birth year of a developer

• To create a developer instance using birth year

• To delete a developer instance

• To calculate the age of a developer

Why would you use a static method in Python?

• To access instance variables

• To modify class attributes

• To create new instances of a class

• To perform utility tasks without accessing class or instance data

Which method type is used for tasks that do not require access to class or instance data?

• Instance method

• Class method

• Static method

• Factory method
