Learn Python CLASS METHODS in 6 minutes! 🏫

# Class methods = Allow operations related to the class itself
# Take (cls) as the first parameter, which represents the class itself.

# Instance methods = Best for operations on instances of the class (objects)
# Static methods = Best for utility functions that do not need access to class data
# Class methods = Best for class-level data or require access to the class itself

class Student:

count = 0
total_gpa = 0

def __init__(self, name, gpa):

#INSTANCE METHOD
def get_info(self):

@classmethod
def get_count(cls):

@classmethod
def get_average_gpa(cls):
return 0
else:

student1 = Student("Spongebob", 3.2)
student2 = Student("Patrick", 2.0)
student3 = Student("Sandy", 4.0)

nice video dude your tutorial are always a class

[shantanughosh]

I think the reason class method gets so confusing to understand is because in most of the examples taken, people operate on a class variable. First it is defined, then some operation is performed on it in __init__ or some other instance method, then finally calls @classmethod decorator and performs some operation on that class variable. Reason it is confusing bcoz this can be done using self too. Another example is, calling a class method which creates you an object based on some input...again this can also be done w/o class method. There needs to be some tutorial on internet which explicitly explains the use cases of class methods which can't be done by others

Dear Bro Code,

Pls can you do a full 12hours course on Django. Also using rest framework for creating endpoints and building backend applications


Am a beginner. I really love your courses and I must admit I like the way you teach bro code


I would be very delighted if you do a full 12hours course on Django and also teach us everything on the backend

I would also appreciate it if you used the same approach you adopted while doing the JavaScript 12hours full course where it was practical and project based.


I am my friends love your series

Pls bro code consider this as a special request from a fellow bro💓🥺

Thanks bro code💓

I wrote this program: task = []

def add():
add_input = input("What do you want to add to your tasks list?: ")
task.append(add_input)
print(task)
def less():
less_input = int(input("Enter the index you want to delete "))
task.pop(lessinput - 1)
print(task)
def view():
print(task)
while True:
choices = input("a.Enter the task you want to add to your list\nb.Enter the task you want to deduct to your list\nc.View you tasks\nd.Stop\nEnter the choice you would like: ")
if choices == "a":
add()
elif choices == "b":
less()
elif choices == "c":
view()
elif choices == "d":

break
else:
print("INVALID INPUT")
