delattr()

Theory

188/268

delattr() is built into Python. You do not import it. Freshers only need one honest call and the printed result — not a long definition.

delattr() — output — True. delattr removes an attribute; here we only check hasattr.

Wrong type often raises TypeError. Empty values matter for bool/all/any. Don’t mix delattr up with a similar name (sorted vs sort, int vs float).

Exam tip

Call delattr() once and say what prints.

# delattr()
class S:
    name = "Asha"
s = S()
delattr(s, "name") if False else print(hasattr(S, "name"))

delattr() — output: True. delattr removes an attribute; here we only check hasattr.
