Intermediate Python Tutorial #2 - Static and Class Methods

Welcome to a new series! Intermediate Python Tutorials!

Today's Topic: static and class methods, these are different types of method that you can use within a class. They are especially useful when doing OOP programming and have many use cases.

In this set of videos I will be explaining more advanced programming concepts and showing you intermediate-advanced tools that you can use in python. A lot of these tools will help you to solve problems/code more efficiently and will save you a ton of time!

Future topics:
3. Map Function
4. Filter Function
5. Lambda Functions
6. Intro to Collections
7. Collections: named tuple
8. Collections: deque
9. Collections: orderedDict
10. Collections: defualtDict
11. docstrings

Your channel is soo underrated! You deserve more attention!

[neoquam]

You explained it easier than others, thanks!

[dhanavignesh]

Awesome tutorial and more easily understandable. Thanks for the tutorials. Keep uploading the videos on weekly basis

[Christian-cueo]

Great content. Many thanks. What confused me (being quite new to Phyton) in the beginning was that you have to know that the display() method is NOT a staticmethod, even though for a newbie it looks like that as it is written right after the other staticmethod

so amazing trust me i watched your 2-3 videos and then i thought you must have at least 300k - 400k subs....
but when i saw only 7.3k I literally shocked. I shared your videos with all of my friends...  Keep it up.... lots of love and wish you all the best...

you're awesome bro! extremly underrated channel

An interesting topic. I'm a C# developer trying to grasp python. In C# we have static, I almost tend to look at static as being tied to type (class), and non-static methods being tied to an instance. At first I thought the worst, that you were explaining it backward, but in python you can reference in a third way?

Let me explain, in C#, instance.age() might return the age of the person from a given instance of the class,
while static int age(person) would instead interrogate that person handed in to determine the age. the latter not being tied to the instance of the object.

So in python, you can infer a type variable outside an instance, but implicitly because it's defined within the type?

Interesting, thanks for the share! =)

Anybody getting stressed by the white idle background? click,
1. Options
2. Configure IDLE
3. Highlights
4. Click IDLE classic and click IDLE dark!
You can also customize the colour of the functions, text etc by clicking the normal code or text and choose what colour you want.

Hope this helped you since it helped me. like, by a LOT.

Thanks so much Tim, am new to your channel but thanks so much

if there anybody from 2021 learning python, if these examples and explanations aren't very understandable check out a "Bythe Of Python" classes part then you can continue this tutorial, i did so, and it helped!

[ibekwevictor]

Thank you Tim for the tutorial...God bless

[MrChristian]

Aren't you supposed to capitalize "person" because it is a class??

[Algoritmik]

Great channel. P.S: Your code should conform to PEP8.

Static methods applies to all instances of the class. Non static methods are also different. Quite different to a non static method.

[artistpw]

Love your tutorials. I happened to notice static is misspelled at the top. No big deal or anything misspellings usually just pop out for me.

[wongkingshun]

For static method, we can simply call the class name
class person (object):

print(person.isAdult( ))

[rotrose]

Thank you very much! These tutorials are truely excellent!

[chonkboi]

[pedropc]

Hey Tim is there some chance of you do some c# tutorials ?

[asoli]

Thanks man, really appreciate information in simplified version
