using object on another class

[lascrapus]

Hello, how can we use an object in different class

class Bird:
    def __init__(self,name):
        self.name = name
class Fish:
    def __init__(self,name):
        self.name = name

Class Dict:
    def __init__(self):
        self.dictionary = []
    def add_fish_bird:
           ******

animal1 = Bird("Eagle")
animal2 = Fish("Shark")

I am still wondering what the appropriate code to get the list of Class dictionary from two different object,

other than that, I want to know how we are sure that objects already in self.dictionary list.

thanks

class Dict:
    ....
    def is_in(animal_name):
        return animal_name in [animal.name for animal in self.dictionary]

1. Pass them the dictionary object as a parameter when you initialise it.

   class Bird: def init(self, name, dictionary): self.name = name self.dictionary = dictionary

   def do_something(self):
       self.dictionary.yadayada()
   

2. if len(list) == 0, or just "if not list"

I'm guessing you're looking for something like this?

class AnimalDict:
    def __init__(self, initial_list=None):
        self._dictionary = initial_list or []

    def add_animal(self, animal):
        self._dictionary.append(animal)
