image
has same name as its encolising class Image
4class Image:
5 def __init__(self, path: str):
6 self.path = path
7 self.image = cv2.imread(path) 8
9 def resize(self, width: int, height: int) -> None:
10 self.image = cv2.resize(self.image, (width, height))
There is a class member with the same name (not considering the case difference) as its enclosing class.
This can cause confusion while reading the code later on keeping a track of what the field represents. It is strongly recommended to provide self-explanatory names so that someone who's reading the code doesn't have to spend time keeping a track of the variable/method names.
class Orange:
'''We mean, the fruit.'''
orange = "#FFA500"
# Other class implementations
def get_orange(self):
return abc
fruit = Orange()
render_to_frontend(fruit.orange) # Rendering a color, but one can get confused with the fruit
render_bg(fruit.get_orange) # Not clear that `get_orange` is returning a color
class Orange:
'''We mean, the fruit.'''
color = "#FFA500"
# Other class implementations
def get_color(self):
return abc
fruit = Orange()
render_to_frontend(fruit.color) # Evident that we are working with color
render_bg(fruit.get_color) # Evident that we are fetching the fruit's color
