The `__init__` method in 🐍 Python is commonly confused to be a constructor. Is this really true though ?

Let's find out in today's 🧵🧵🧵

🔶Firstly, what is a constructor ?

✅ A constructor is a special method of a class or structure in object-oriented programming that initializes a newly created object of that type.

✅ Whenever an object is created, the constructor is called automatically

✅ The __init__ behaves differently however.

✅ It receives an already initialized instance of a class `hence the keyword self` is passed as an argument to the method.

✅ So all in all
