๐ Python’s Hidden Superpowers: Secret Methods That Will Surprise You! ๐ Python looks simple on the surface — but behind the scenes, it hides powerful “magic methods” (also called dunder methods — double underscore methods) that control how objects behave. These hidden gems allow you to customize operators, comparisons, printing, iteration, and performance optimizations in ways that many developers overlook. Let’s explore some of the most surprising Python hidden methods with clear examples! ✨ ๐ฎ What Are Python Hidden (Magic) Methods? Magic methods are special methods surrounded by double underscores (e.g., __str__ , __len__ ). They allow your objects to integrate seamlessly with Python’s built-in features. They power things like: ✅ Printing objects ✅ Using operators ( + , == , < ) ✅ Iteration and containers ✅ Performance optimizations ✅ Object lifecycle management ⚡ 1. __str__() — Custom Object Display This method controls how your object appears when printed. ✅ Exam...
