How do I access attributes in Python?

How do I access attributes in Python?

In Python, you can access attributes of an object using the dot notation. For example, object.attribute.

Can you give me an example with a class?

Sure! Here's a simple class:

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

my_dog = Dog('Buddy')
print(my_dog.name)  # This will print 'Buddy'

What if the attribute doesn't exist?

If you try to access an attribute that doesn't exist, Python will raise an AttributeError. You can check if it exists using hasattr(object, 'attribute').

Thanks! How can I set an attribute value?

You can set an attribute value using the same dot notation. For example, my_dog.name = 'Max' will change the name to 'Max'.
