Python deletes unneeded objects (built-in types or class instances) automatically to free the memory space. The process by which Python periodically reclaims blocks of memory that no longer are in use is termed Garbage Collection.Python's garbage collector runs during program execution and is triggered when an object's reference count reaches zero. An object's reference count changes as the number of aliases that point to it changes.An object's reference count increases when it is assigned a new name or placed in a container (list, tuple, or dictionary). The object's reference count decreases when it's deleted with del, its reference is reassigned, or ... Read More

In this article, we will explain to you the built-in class attributes in python The built-in class attributes provide us with information about the class. Using the dot (.) operator, we may access the built-in class attributes. The built-in class attributes in python are listed below − Attributes Description __dict__ Dictionary containing the class namespace __doc__ If there is a class documentation class, this returns it. Otherwise, None __name__ Class name. __module__ Module name in which the class is defined. This attribute is "__main__" in interactive mode. __bases__ ... Read More

To create instances of a class, you call the class using class name and pass in whatever arguments its __init__ method accepts."This would create first object of Employee class" emp1 = Employee("Zara", 2000) "This would create second object of Employee class" emp2 = Employee("Manni", 5000)You access the object's attributes using the dot (.) operator with object. Class variable would be accessed using class name as follows −emp1.displayEmployee() emp2.displayEmployee() print "Total Employee %d" % Employee.empCountExampleNow, putting all the concepts together − Live Demo#!/usr/bin/python class Employee:    'Common base class for all employees'    empCount = 0    def __init__(self, name, salary):       ...

The class statement creates a new class definition. The name of the class immediately follows the keyword class followed by a colon as follows −class ClassName: 'Optional class documentation string' class_suiteThe class has a documentation string, which can be accessed via ClassName.__doc__.The class_suite consists of all the component statements defining class members, data attributes and functions.ExampleFollowing is the example of a simple Python class −class Employee:    'Common base class for all employees'    empCount = 0    def __init__(self, name, salary):       self.name = name       self.salary = salary       Employee.empCount += 1    def displayCount(self): ...

Class − A user-defined prototype for an object that defines a set of attributes that characterize any object of the class. The attributes are data members (class variables and instance variables) and methods, accessed via dot notation.Class variable − A variable that is shared by all instances of a class. Class variables are defined within a class but outside any of the class's methods. Class variables are not used as frequently as instance variables are.Data member − A class variable or instance variable that holds data associated with a class and its objects.Function overloading − The assignment of more than ...

Suppose we have to design a module, that first discards as many whitespace characters as necessary until the first non-whitespace character is reached. After that, starting from this character, it takes an optional initial plus sign or minus sign followed by as many numerical digits, and interprets them as a numerical value.When the first sequence of non-whitespace characters in str is not a valid integral number, or when no such sequence exists because either str is empty or it contains only whitespaces, no conversion will be performed.So if the input is like “-45”, the output will be -45.To solve this, ...

Suppose the string is like " IWANTTOLEARNCODE". This string is written in a zigzag way on a given number of rows say n. So the pattern is looking like thisITAOWNOERCDALNEWhen we read the line like − "ITAOWNOERCDALNE"So we have to create one module that can perform this kind of operation by taking the string and the number of rows.To solve this, we will follow these stepswhen n = 1, then return screate an array of strings arr of size nrow := 0, and down := truefor i in range 0 to size of string – 1insert s[i] at the end ...

An exception can have an argument, which is a value that gives additional information about the problem. The contents of the argument vary by exception. You capture an exception's argument by supplying a variable in the except clause as follows −try:    You do your operations here;    ...................... except ExceptionType, Argument:    You can print value of Argument here...If you write the code to handle a single exception, you can have a variable follow the name of the exception in the except statement. If you are trapping multiple exceptions, you can have a variable follow the tuple of the exception.This ... Read More

Suppose we have a string S. We have to find the longest palindromic substring in S. We are assuming that the length of the string S is 1000. So if the string is “BABAC”, then the longest palindromic substring is “BAB”.To solve this, we will follow these stepsDefine one square matrix of order same as the length of string, and fill it with FalseSet the major diagonal elements as true, so DP[i, i] = True for all i from 0 to order – 1start := 0for l in range 2 to length of S + 1for i in range 0 ...
