Here’s a comprehensive explanation of all 33 OOP concepts, with detailed theory,

examples, and code implementation for each point:

1. Classes

Theory:
A class is a blueprint for creating objects. It defines properties (attributes) and behaviors
(methods) that its objects can have.

class Animal:
species = "Unknown" # Class attribute

def speak(self): # Instance method

return "Generic sound"

2. Objects (Instances)

Theory:
Objects are specific instances of a class. They hold data and methods defined by their class.

dog = Animal() # Creating an object (instance) of the Animal class

print(dog.species) # Output: Unknown

3. Attributes

Theory:
Attributes are variables that store data about an object. They can be unique (instance
attributes) or shared (class attributes).

 Instance Attributes: Unique to each object.

 Class Attributes: Shared by all objects of the class.

class Animal:
species = "Mammal" # Class attribute

def __init__(self, name):

self.name = name # Instance attribute

dog = Animal("Buddy")
print(dog.name) # Instance attribute
print(dog.species) # Class attribute

4. Methods
Theory:
Functions defined in a class to manipulate attributes or define behavior.

 Instance Methods: Operate on object-specific data.

 Class Methods: Operate on class-level data.
 Static Methods: Independent of both instance and class data.

class Math:
@staticmethod
def add(a, b):
return a + b

@classmethod
def info(cls):
return f"This is a {cls.__name__} class"

print(Math.add(3, 5)) # Static method

print(Math.info()) # Class method

5. Constructor (__init__)

Theory:
The __init__ method is called automatically when an object is created. It initializes the
instance attributes.

class Animal:
def __init__(self, name, age):
self.name = name
self.age = age

dog = Animal("Buddy", 5)
print(dog.name, dog.age) # Output: Buddy 5

6. Inheritance

Theory:
Inheritance allows one class (child) to inherit attributes and methods from another class
(parent).

 Single Inheritance: One parent, one child.

 Multiple Inheritance: Child inherits from multiple parents.
 Multilevel Inheritance: Inheritance across multiple levels.

# Single Inheritance
class Animal:
def speak(self):
return "Animal sound"
class Dog(Animal):
def speak(self):
return "Bark"

dog = Dog()
print(dog.speak()) # Output: Bark

7. Encapsulation

Theory:
Encapsulation restricts access to certain parts of an object. Use private ( __) or protected (_)
attributes for encapsulation.

class Animal:
def __init__(self, name):
self.__name = name # Private attribute

def get_name(self): # Getter method

return self.__name

def set_name(self, name): # Setter method

self.__name = name

dog = Animal("Buddy")
print(dog.get_name()) # Output: Buddy
dog.set_name("Max")
print(dog.get_name()) # Output: Max

8. Abstraction

Theory:
Abstraction hides implementation details and shows only essential features. Abstract
classes and methods are used to achieve this.

from abc import ABC, abstractmethod

class Animal(ABC):
@abstractmethod
def speak(self):
pass

class Dog(Animal):
def speak(self):
return "Bark"

dog = Dog()
print(dog.speak()) # Output: Bark

9. Polymorphism
Theory:
Polymorphism allows the same function to behave differently based on the context.

 Method Overriding: Child class redefines a method from the parent.

 Operator Overloading: Modify the behavior of operators for user-defined types.

# Method Overriding
class Animal:
def speak(self):
return "Animal sound"

class Dog(Animal):
def speak(self):
return "Bark"

dog = Dog()
print(dog.speak()) # Output: Bark

10. Dynamic Method Resolution Order (MRO)

Theory:
Determines the order in which methods are inherited in a multiple-inheritance scenario.

class A:
def method(self):
return "A"

class B(A):
pass

class C(A):
def method(self):
return "C"

class D(B, C):

pass

obj = D()
print(obj.method()) # Output: C

11. Super() Function

Theory:
super() is used to call methods of a parent class.

class Parent:
def greet(self):
return "Hello from Parent"

class Child(Parent):
 def greet(self):
return super().greet() + " and Child"

child = Child()
print(child.greet()) # Output: Hello from Parent and Child

12. Magic Methods (Dunder Methods)

Theory:
Special methods with double underscores, used for operator overloading and custom
behavior.

class Point:
def __init__(self, x, y):
self.x = x
self.y = y

def __add__(self, other):

return Point(self.x + other.x, self.y + other.y)

p1 = Point(1, 2)
p2 = Point(3, 4)
result = p1 + p2
print(result.x, result.y) # Output: 4 6

13. Composition

Theory:
A "has-a" relationship where one class contains another.

class Engine:
def start(self):
return "Engine started"

class Car:
def __init__(self):
self.engine = Engine()

def drive(self):
return self.engine.start()

car = Car()
print(car.drive()) # Output: Engine started

14. Aggregation

Theory:
A weaker form of composition where objects are shared.
class Department:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name

class Employee:
def __init__(self, name, department):
self.name = name
self.department = department

dept = Department("IT")
emp = Employee("Alice", dept)
print(emp.department.name) # Output: IT

15. Interface (Protocol)

Theory:
Defines a contract that implementing classes must follow. In Python, use abstract classes or
protocols.

16. Duck Typing

Theory:
If an object behaves like a duck (has the required methods), it is treated as a duck.

class Bird:
def fly(self):
return "Flying"

class Airplane:
def fly(self):
return "Flying high"

def let_fly(obj):
print(obj.fly())

bird = Bird()
plane = Airplane()
let_fly(bird) # Output: Flying
let_fly(plane) # Output: Flying high

 Continuing with the remaining OOP concepts, each explained with theory and code
examples:

17. Type Checking (e.g., isinstance(), issubclass())

Theory:
Type checking ensures that an object is of a specific type or class.

 isinstance(): Checks if an object is an instance of a class or a subclass.

 issubclass(): Checks if a class is a subclass of another class.

class Animal:
pass

class Dog(Animal):
pass

dog = Dog()

print(isinstance(dog, Dog)) # True

print(isinstance(dog, Animal)) # True
print(issubclass(Dog, Animal)) # True

18. Class Inheritance and super() Keyword

Theory:
Inheritance allows child classes to reuse parent class attributes and methods. The super()
keyword is used to access methods of the parent class.

class Parent:
def greet(self):
return "Hello from Parent"

class Child(Parent):
def greet(self):
return super().greet() + " and Child"

child = Child()
print(child.greet()) # Output: Hello from Parent and Child

19. self Parameter

Theory:
self represents the instance of the class and is used to access attributes and methods of the
object.
class Animal:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name

def speak(self):
return f"{self.name} says Hello!"

dog = Animal("Buddy")
print(dog.speak()) # Output: Buddy says Hello!

20. @property Decorator

Theory:
The @property decorator is used to define getter methods, allowing attributes to be
accessed like properties.

class Circle:
def __init__(self, radius):
self._radius = radius

@property
def radius(self):
return self._radius

@radius.setter
def radius(self, value):
if value > 0:
self._radius = value
else:
raise ValueError("Radius must be positive!")

circle = Circle(5)
print(circle.radius) # Output: 5
circle.radius = 10
print(circle.radius) # Output: 10

21. Class Variables vs Instance Variables

Theory:

 Class Variables: Shared by all instances of the class.

 Instance Variables: Unique to each instance.

class Animal:
species = "Mammal" # Class variable

def __init__(self, name):

self.name = name # Instance variable

dog = Animal("Buddy")
cat = Animal("Kitty")
print(dog.species) # Mammal (class variable)
print(cat.name) # Kitty (instance variable)

22. Private, Protected, and Public Access Modifiers

Theory:

 Public: Accessible anywhere.

 Protected (_): Accessible within the class and subclasses.
 Private (__): Accessible only within the class.

class Animal:
def __init__(self):
self.public_attr = "Public"
self._protected_attr = "Protected"
self.__private_attr = "Private"

def get_private_attr(self):
return self.__private_attr

animal = Animal()
print(animal.public_attr) # Public
print(animal._protected_attr) # Protected
print(animal.get_private_attr()) # Private

23. Decorator Functions in OOP

Theory:
Decorators like @classmethod, @staticmethod, and @property modify class methods'
behavior.

class Math:
@staticmethod
def add(a, b):
return a + b

@classmethod
def info(cls):
return f"This is a {cls.__name__} class"

print(Math.add(3, 5)) # Output: 8

print(Math.info()) # Output: This is a Math class

24. Iterators and Generators

Theory:
Iterators allow objects to be iterated using __iter__() and __next__(). Generators yield
values using yield.

class MyIterator:
def __init__(self, max):
self.max = max
self.current = 0

def __iter__(self):
return self

def __next__(self):
if self.current < self.max:
self.current += 1
return self.current
else:
raise StopIteration

it = MyIterator(3)
for num in it:
print(num) # Output: 1, 2, 3

25. Context Manager (__enter__, __exit__)

Theory:
Context managers handle resources like files, ensuring proper cleanup.

class FileManager:
def __init__(self, filename, mode):
self.file = open(filename, mode)

def __enter__(self):
return self.file

def __exit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb):

self.file.close()

with FileManager("example.txt", "w") as file:

file.write("Hello, World!")

26. Operator Overloading

Theory:
Redefining how operators work for user-defined types.

class Point:
def __init__(self, x, y):
self.x = x
self.y = y
 def __add__(self, other):
return Point(self.x + other.x, self.y + other.y)

p1 = Point(1, 2)
p2 = Point(3, 4)
result = p1 + p2
print(result.x, result.y) # Output: 4 6

27. Inheritance of __str__ and __repr__

Theory:
Customize string representation of objects using __str__ and __repr__.

class Point:
def __init__(self, x, y):
self.x = x
self.y = y

def __str__(self):
return f"Point({self.x}, {self.y})"

p = Point(3, 4)
print(p) # Output: Point(3, 4)

28. Static Method vs Class Method

Theory:

 Static Method: Independent utility.

 Class Method: Works with class-level data.

class Example:
@staticmethod
def static_method():
return "Static Method"

@classmethod
def class_method(cls):
return f"Class Method in {cls.__name__}"

print(Example.static_method()) # Static Method

print(Example.class_method()) # Class Method in Example

29. Abstract Base Classes (ABCs)

Theory:
Abstract classes enforce implementation of abstract methods in child classes.
from abc import ABC, abstractmethod

class Shape(ABC):
@abstractmethod
def area(self):
pass

class Rectangle(Shape):
def __init__(self, width, height):
self.width = width
self.height = height

def area(self):
return self.width * self.height

rect = Rectangle(4, 5)
print(rect.area()) # Output: 20
