python properties and inheritance

Question

I have a base class with a property which (the get method) I want to overwrite in the subclass. My first thought was something like:

class Foo(object):
    d         


        

Answer 1

class Foo:
    # Template method
    @property
    def age(self):
        return self.dothis()
    # Hook method of TM is accessor method of property at here
    def dothis(self):
        return 11
class Bar(Foo):
    def dothis(self):
        return 44

Same as Nizam Mohamed, just to mention that style guide 2.13.4 using both template method and property
