Examine the advanced features that you can implement by using classes in Python, such as special methods, iterators, class properties, and abstract base classes. Key concepts covered in this 14-video course include how to represent objects by using customized strings; performing addition operations on custom objects; and performing subtraction operations on custom objects. Next, observe how to perform multiplication operations on custom objects and perform floor division, modulo, and power-of operations. Then study learn built-in functions to work with custom data types; learn to execute for-loops on custom data types; and learn about properties on classes for intuitive use. Learn about properties using a simpler syntax; work with class methods to access and update class state; work with utility methods on classes; and learn how to use the abstract method to make classes that are not instantiable base classes. Finally, learners will be shown special methods and what they represent; learn to define a class and create a property within it; and observe how to differentiate between class methods and static methods.
