Platypus 4 (Inheritance)
We just realized that in our first platypus experiment, some eggs were
poached or didn’t hatch, and we didn’t count those numbers. We want
those eggs included in total_fecundity
, but we want to know how many
eggs actually hatched as well.
Create a second class, BetterPlatypus
. It should be just like (inherit
from) our original Platypus class except that it takes two lists: one is
the original list of eggs laid, and the other is a list of eggs we just
found that didn’t hatch. Override the lay_eggs
method so that it takes
two numbers, the number of hatched and the number of unhatched eggs.
Override total_fecundity
so that it incorporates both lists.
>>> perry = BetterPlatypus("perry", [3, 2, 4, 1, 2], [0,1,0,0,1])
>>> perry.total\_fecundity()
14
>>> perry.lay_eggs(2, 1)
>>> perry.total_fecundity()
17
Fun fact: did you know that the platypus is also venomous?
