What are advanced class decorators in Python?

Advanced class decorators in Python are functions that modify or enhance classes. They can add methods, properties, or even alter the class behavior.

Can you give me an example of a class decorator?

Sure! Here's a simple example: a decorator that adds a new method to a class.

def add_method(cls):
    def new_method(self):
        return 'This is a new method!'
    cls.new_method = new_method
    return cls

@add_method
class MyClass:
    pass

How do I use multiple decorators on a class?

You can stack decorators by applying them one after the other. For example:

@decorator_one
@decorator_two
class MyClass:
    pass

Are there any built-in decorators for classes?

Yes, Python has built-in decorators like @classmethod, @staticmethod, and @property that can be used to define methods with special behavior.
