Duke University

Object-Oriented Programming in Python

Duke University via Coursera

Overview

In this project, you will gain hands-on experience working with classes in Python to model real-world objects and systems. By the end, you will be able to utilize key object-oriented programming principles like inheritance and polymorphism. We will build an interactive boxing match simulation using Python classes to represent different fighters. You will learn how to define class attributes, instantiate object instances, and customize behaviors through methods. The concepts covered translate to building all types of apps.
