call a property on an instance of a class in python

To call a property on an instance of a class in Python, you need to access the property through the instance. Here is an example:

main.py
class MyClass:
    def __init__(self, x):
        self.x = x

    @property
    def squared(self):
        return self.x ** 2

my_instance = MyClass(5)
print(my_instance.squared) # Output: 25
192 chars
11 lines

In this example, we have a MyClass class with a squared property that calculates the square of the x attribute. We create an instance of the class called my_instance with an x value of 5. We then call the squared property on the my_instance instance by using the dot notation (my_instance.squared) to access the property through the instance. This will output 25, which is the result of 5 ** 2 (i.e., 5 squared).
