Class factory to produce simple struct-like classes?

Question

While investigating Ruby I came across this to create a simple Struct-like class:

Person = Struct.new(:forname, :surname)
person1 = Person.new(\'John\', \'Do         


        

Answer 1

There is namedtuple

>>> from collections import namedtuple
>>> Person = namedtuple("Person", ("forename", "surname"))
>>> john = Person("John", "Doe")
>>> john.forename 
'John'
>>> john.surname 
'Doe'
