OOP vs FP in Python

Object-oriented programming vs. functional programming is one of the greatest internet debates of our time. But the real question is what should we use in Python???

I've been programming during my free time for the past 4 years. Spent 3 of them learning how to use OOP, and the last one learning when to not use it. I've found a beautiful balance

I've always manage to avoid OOP by creating dictionaries with sub dictionaries. It always worked for my uses so I never felt the need to learn OOP. I firmly believe that it's possible to solve every problem you have using functions or OOP it just depends on the style of code you want to write. But I will admit that it does get annoying to have to do something like = 15 rather than person_1.set_age(15). I guess it really depends on what you're doing and both approaches are equally valid and awesome in their own way.

Hot take: Python is actually procedural and it's okay and Python is good

Tbh python is way better in OOP. I am a huge fan of FP but python is too clumsy in this field
