Python - Difference Between __init__ and __call__
I have given here python program that explains difference between __init__ and __call__. __init__ would be treated as Constructor where as __call__ methods can be called with objects any number of times. Both __init__ and __call__ functions do take default arguments.
This code is tested with Python version 2.6
class CEmployee: age = 0 name = "" def __init__ (self, name="unassigned", age=-1): self.name = name self.age = age def __call__ (self, name, age=10): self.name = name self.age = age def PrintRecord(self): print self.name, self.age s1 = CEmployee() s1.PrintRecord() s1("Kathir") s1.PrintRecord() s1("Kathir", 33) s1.PrintRecord() #output #unassigned -1 #kathir 10 #kathir 33
