In my experience, what Python is lacking is a way to declare attributes outside of the constructor. Take a look at how it's done in C#, Swisft, or Go.

Since you apparently already know how they do it, how about telling us (1) how they do it, and (2) *why* they do it?

Object attributes outside of the constructor would solve things more relevant than the vertical space used when assigning constructor parameters to attributes.

Solve which things?

For example, multiple inheritance is well designed in Python, except that it often requires constructors with no parameters, which leads to objects with no default attributes.

Can you elaborate? -- Steve
