This video introduces Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in Python. We explain the basic principles by building a staff management system. Our first class is the Staff class. Attributes are introduced to store information on instances of a class. Magic methods (or Dunder methods “Double Under Underscores”) are used to initialize an instance and to modify string representations. Finally, I show you how to use modules to organise your code in a more efficient manner. Many Data Scientists do not know much about OOP, which is a mistake in my view. The code is available on GitHub (https://github.com/GerhardKling/Pytho....
