How can I implement duck typing in Python?

Duck typing in Python allows you to use objects based on their behavior rather than their type. You can implement it by defining methods that expect certain behaviors.

Can you give me an example of duck typing in action?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

class Duck:
    def quack(self):
        return "Quack!"

class Dog:
    def quack(self):
        return "Woof!"

def make_it_quack(thing):
    print(thing.quack())

make_it_quack(Duck())  # Outputs: Quack!
make_it_quack(Dog())   # Outputs: Woof!

What if the object doesn't have the method I call?

If the object doesn't have the method, Python will raise an AttributeError. You can handle this using a try-except block to catch the error.
