Python makes extensive use of a type system known as duck typing. This system is based on an object’s behavior and interface. Many built-in classes and tools support this type system, which makes them pretty flexible and decoupled.
Duck typing is a core concept in Python. Understanding it will give you deeper insight into how the language works and, more importantly, how to use this approach in your own code.
In this video course, you’ll learn:
- What duck typing is and what its pros and cons are
- How Python’s classes and tools take advantage of duck typing
- How special methods and protocols support duck typing
- What the alternatives to duck typing are in Python
