Use Slotted Class To Improve Your Python Code

If you want to fix the attributes a class can hold, consider defining it as a slotted class.

While defining classes, __𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘁𝘀__ allows you to explicitly specify the class attributes. This means you cannot randomly add new attributes to a slotted class object. This offers many advantages.

For instance, slotted classes are memory efficient and they provide faster access to class attributes. What's more, it also helps you avoid common typos. This, at times, can be a costly mistake that can go unnoticed.
