Design a Data Helper Class in Python
Create a simple Object-Oriented data helper with DataPoint and Dataset classes that store, describe, and summarize coordinate points.
class DataPoint:
def __init__(self, x, y):
self.x = x
self.y = y
self.label = None
def describe(self):
"""Return a human-readable description of the data point."""
base = f"DataPoint(x={self.x}, y={self.y})"
return f"{base}, label='{self.label}'" if self.label e…
Group Data Helper Class in Python
A simple Python class that stores items under named groups, retrieves groups, items, and counts, and formats them as a readable summary.
class GroupData:
"""A simple helper class to store and group data for beginners."""
def __init__(self):
self.items = []
def add(self, item, group):
"""Add an item under a given group name."""
self.items.append({"item": item, "group": group})
