What are some examples of constructors in Python?

In Python, a constructor is defined using the __init__ method. Would you like to see a specific example?

Yes, please provide an example of a class with a constructor.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

class Dog:
    def __init__(self, name, age):
        self.name = name
        self.age = age

my_dog = Dog('Buddy', 3)
print(my_dog.name)  # Output: Buddy

Can you explain how the constructor works in this example?

Absolutely! The __init__ method initializes the object's attributes. In this case, name and age are set when creating a new Dog object.

What happens if I don't define a constructor?

If you don't define a constructor, Python provides a default one that does nothing. You won't be able to initialize attributes directly.
