"""Class Definition Syntax.
@see: https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/classes.html#class-objects
After defining the class attributes to a class, the class object can be created by assigning the
object to a variable. The created object would have instance attributes associated with it.
def test_class_objects():
    """Class Objects.
    Class objects support two kinds of operations:
    - attribute references
    - instantiation.
    # ATTRIBUTE REFERENCES use the standard syntax used for all attribute references in
    # Python: obj.name. Valid attribute names are all the names that were in the class’s namespace
    # when the class object was created. For class MyCounter the following references are valid
    # attribute references:
    class ComplexNumber:
        """Example of the complex numbers class"""
        real = 0
        imaginary = 0
        def get_real(self):
            """Return real part of complex number."""
            return self.real
        def get_imaginary(self):
            """Return imaginary part of complex number."""
            return self.imaginary
    assert ComplexNumber.real == 0
    # __doc__ is also a valid attribute, returning the docstring belonging to the class
    assert ComplexNumber.__doc__ == 'Example of the complex numbers class'
    # Class attributes can also be assigned to, so you can change the value of
    # ComplexNumber.counter by assignment.
    ComplexNumber.real = 10
    assert ComplexNumber.real == 10
    # CLASS INSTANTIATION uses function notation. Just pretend that the class object is a
    # parameterless function that returns a new instance of the class. For example
    # (assuming the above class):
    complex_number = ComplexNumber()
    assert complex_number.real == 10
    assert complex_number.get_real() == 10
    # Let's change counter default value back.
    ComplexNumber.real = 10
    assert ComplexNumber.real == 10
    # The instantiation operation (“calling” a class object) creates an empty object. Many classes
    # like to create objects with instances customized to a specific initial state. Therefore a
    # class may define a special method named __init__(), like this:
    class ComplexNumberWithConstructor:
        """Example of the class with constructor"""
        def __init__(self, real_part, imaginary_part):
            self.real = real_part
            self.imaginary = imaginary_part
        def get_real(self):
            """Return real part of complex number."""
            return self.real
        def get_imaginary(self):
            """Return imaginary part of complex number."""
            return self.imaginary
    complex_number = ComplexNumberWithConstructor(3.0, -4.5)
    assert complex_number.real, complex_number.imaginary == (3.0, -4.5)
