How to assign values for the Class attributes at runtime?

Answer 1

We can  specify the values for the python class attributes at runtime. We need to add an init method and pass input to object constructor. See the following example demonstrating this.

>>> class Human:

    def __init__(self, profession):

        self.profession = profession

    def set_profession(self, new_profession):

        self.profession = new_profession

>>> man = Human("Manager")

>>> print(man.profession)

Manager
