Python Coding challenge - Day 877| What is the output of the following Python Code?

 

Code Explanation:

1. class Num:

Defines a class named Num that will hold a numeric value and support operator overloading.

2. def __init__(self, x):

Constructor of the class. It runs when a new Num object is created.

3. self.x = x

Stores the passed value x inside the object.

4. def __truediv__(self, other):

This method overloads the division operator / for objects of class Num.

Instead of performing division, we define a custom operation.

5. return Num(self.x + other.x)

When two Num objects are divided using /,

it returns a new Num object whose value is:

self.x + other.x

6. n1 = Num(8)

Creates a Num object with value 8.

7. n2 = Num(2)

Creates another Num object with value 2.

8. print((n1 / n2).x)

Calls the overloaded / operator

→ executes __truediv__(n1, n2)

Computes: 8 + 2 = 10

Returns Num(10)

Prints its x value → 10

Final Output

10
