Make Dot Notation More Powerful in Python

Dot notation offers a simple and elegant way to access and modify the attributes of an instance.

Yet, it is a good programming practice to use the getter and setter method for such purposes. This is because it offers more control over how attributes are accessed/changed.

To leverage both in Python, use the @𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐲 decorator. As a result, you can use the dot notation and still have explicit control over how attributes are accessed/set.
