Help on class property in module __builtin__:

class property(object)
 |  property(fget=None, fset=None, fdel=None, doc=None) -> property attribute
 |  
 |  fget is a function to be used for getting an attribute value, and likewise
 |  fset is a function for setting, and
 
 fdel a function for del‘ing, an
 |  attribute.  Typical use is to define a managed attribute x:
 |  
 |  class C(object):
 |      def getx(self): return self._x
 |      def setx(self, value): self._x = value
 |      def delx(self): del self._x
 |      x = property(getx, setx, delx, "I‘m the ‘x‘ property.
 
")
 |  
 |  Decorators make defining new properties or modifying existing ones easy:
 |  
 |  class C(object):
 |      @property
 |      def x(self):
 |          "I am the ‘x‘ property."
 |          return self._x
 |      @x.setter
 |      def x(self, value):
 |          self._x = value
 |      @x.deleter
 
 
|      def x(self):
 |          del self._x

property()三個參數分別是訪問方法，設置方法。

class Circle(object):
    def __init__(self,radius):
        self.radius = radius

    def getRadius(self):
        return self.radius
    def setRadius(self,value):
        if not isinstance(value,(int,long,float)):
            raise ValueError(‘wrong data type,please slecet int or long or float‘)
        self.radius = value

    def getArea(self):
        return self.radius ** 2 * pi
    R = property(getRadius,setRadius)


c = Circle(3.2)

print (c.getArea())

print (c.R)                #以屬性方式訪問，實際上調用的是getRadius

c.R = 4                    #以屬性方式訪問，實際上調用的是setRadius

print(c.R)          
print(c.getArea())
