Python Trick: Simplify Class Ordering with functools.total_ordering

How It Works:

The total_ordering decorator generates the missing comparison methods based on the ones you define. You need to implement at least __eq__ (equality) and one of the other rich comparison methods. The decorator uses these to fill in the rest, ensuring that your objects can be compared using all standard comparison operators.

Why It's Cool:

Simplicity: Reduces boilerplate code by only requiring two methods instead of all six comparison methods.
Consistency: Ensures that the comparison methods are implemented consistently.
Maintainability: Easier to update and maintain the class definition.
Considerations:

You must implement __eq__ and at least one of __lt__, __le__, __gt__, or __ge__.
The methods should return NotImplemented when the comparison is not supported with the other object.
