Python HTML Generator using Yattag Part 2

Python HTML Generator 5. Shortcut for nodes that contain only text If you're producing HTML or XML, you've probably realized that most tag nodes contain only text.

Python OOP Part 2

In Python, we use double underscore (Or __) before the attributes name and those attributes will not be directly visible outside. We can access the value of hidden attribute by a tricky syntax. Private methods are accessible outside their class, just not easily accessible.  Nothing in Python is truly private; internally , the names of private methods and attributes are mangled and unmangled on the fly to make them seem inaccessible by their given names. Printing objects gives us information about objects we are working with. In C++, we can do this by adding a friend ostream& operator << (ostream&, const Foobar&) method for the class. In Java, we use toString() method. In python this can be achieved by using __repr__ or __str__ methods. class Test:           def __init__(self, a, b):                    self.a = a ...
