2.10 Exercises
Write some object-oriented code. The goal is to use the principles and syntax you learned in this chapter to ensure you understand the topics we’ve covered. If you’ve been working on a Python project, go back over it and see whether there are some objects you can create and add properties or methods to. If your Python project is large, try dividing it into a few modules or even packages and play with the syntax. While a ”simple” script may expand when refactored into classes, there’s generally a gain in flexibility and extensibility.
