[Tutor] intefaces in python

[Amit Sethi]

Well I want to implement plug-in like mechanism for an application . I want
to define some minimum functions that any body writing a plugin has to
implement. For that i thought an interface would be best because in a
scenario where the function is not implemented some kind of error would
occur. I would love to hear if you think their is a better way to achieve
this
