Overview
Python's object model is reference-based and highly dynamic: names bind to objects, classes are objects, and behavior is resolved through attribute lookup and the class hierarchy.
Core Concepts
- Every object has identity, type, and value.
- A class is an object used to construct/manage instances; most user-defined classes are instances of type.
- An instance is an object whose type is a class.
Exam Tips
- Draw two columns: class state vs instance state.
- Track identity separately from equality.
