Not much need to explain here, just check out the example (I am changing the class of the object at runtime).
class Female(object):
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
def intro(self):
print("Hi, I am %s and I am a woman!" % self.name)
class Male(object):
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
def intro(self):
print("Hi, I am %s and I am a man!" % self.name)
Let's try it!
>> me = Male("Oliver Stollmann")
>> me.intro()
Hi, I am Oliver Stollmann and I am a man!
>> me.__class__ = Female
>> me.intro()
Hi, I am Oliver Stollmann and I am a woman!
