__eq__ & is vs == | Python Quick Tips

This python quick tips video discusses the difference between == and is and how we can implement == functionality on our objects with the dunder method __eq__ . This is not so much a quick tip but a very important concept in python that I wanted to introduce.

It's worth noting that if __eq__ is not implemented, then it behaves as "is":

In [1]: class Dog:
...: def __init__(self, name):
...: self.name = name
...:
In [2]: tim = Dog("tim")
In [3]: joe = tim
In [4]: joe == tim
Out[4]: True

These terms require a good explanation since they seem complicated...

But they are important to understand...

Its pretty clear description of this methods thanks.
But I don't understand why there is only 7k views, is that because topic is harder than another videos on this channel?

[sadiqabbaszade]

[fredericoamigo]

Really helpful, can you make a video over some usefull dunder methods available in python with use cases

[serineprotease]

bro explained it better in six minutes than my profs that took 30 minutes

[tomershechner]

Your eq implementation can just be written like:
return isinstance(other, Dog) and other.name == self.name

[rayganmudberry]

hello tim awesome videos. i request you to start complete project based series on django/python. thank you.

[sergeykapshuchenko]

Why u didn’t use just return self.other == self.name

[n_shuvo]

class Dog:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name

obj1 = Dog("Tim")
obj2 = Dog("Tim")
print(obj1.name is obj2.name)

can anyone tell me, why does this program print "True"?

[erezavior]

What is this code style? Looks damn nice

[romariocarvalhoneto]

Now I want to know when to use == or is? At least I learn also that they are not the same thing.

I thought this is a Burmese Python care video. What is this???
