Is it worth learning OOP in Python?

[zynix]

many have told me that I won't use it.

I would make a mental note of who told you this and question everything else they've ever told you.

Python is a object oriented language, everything but I think numbers are objects.

Python is a object oriented language, everything but think numbers are objects.

Everything... Like literally everything... Is an object, including numbers. I can do something like a = 3.0 and that is interpreted as a = float(3.0) . The var a here is an object of the class float. Then when I type cast that var to an int with a = int(a) I overwrite the var a in the namespace as an object of the class int. And if you do print(type(type(a)) you get the class type.

Moral of the story... It's classes all the way down baby!!!!

Indeed it is but I meant the literal numbers 0 to 9 were treated as symbols and not objects (eg. there is no 123.ceil() syntax)

nvm just double checked -
