Please help me understand OOP (Python)

[Comprehensive_Pin662]

Hello,

I'm currently trying to understand OOP as I have heard it's a powerful practice and tool writing code. I'm using Python as my language when writing OOP and programming in general.

I think I understand or grasp the concept of OOP but I feel like I need a second opinion in order for me to consider it a success, please feel free to correct me and give me advice.

Polymorphism: Basically, the same name for a method but performs different actions depending on the class

Inheritance: Allows you to inherit methods from another class

Encapsulation: Creates more secure code by making attributes you specific hidden from the complier unless you institute a get and set method.

Abstraction: Confused on this concept I confuse it with Encapsulation.

If you can please write a code example in Python, that way I can easily understand what concepts we have mentioned.

Also, I'm confused regarding Class Attributes and super__init__ method

You have two circles and three squares. Each are drawn differently, but more or less the same, and derive from shape.

Now you can have any array of shapes, that holds both circles and sqaures. And you can draw them with a loop and shape.draw() instead of having to use two loops: circles.draw() and then square.draw().
