# Old code
obj1.length = obj1.length + obj2.length
# New code (using private attributes and getter and setter)
obj1.set_length(obj1.get_length() + obj2.get_length()) # => this is ugly
如果你使用@property和@length.setter =>您不需要更改旧代码。
2. 一个属性可以封装多个属性
class Person:
def __init__(self, name, physic_health, mental_health):
self.name = name
self.__physic_health = physic_health
self.__mental_health = mental_health
@property
def condition(self):
health = self.__physic_health + self.__mental_health
if(health < 5.0):
return "I feel bad!"
elif health < 8.0:
return "I am ok!"
else:
return "Great!"
