A class with methods in Python
Python interview exercise on Classes & Dataclasses, difficulty 1 of 3. Solve it in the editor beside a worked example, or cold in Interview mode with the example hidden; the tests run the moment you do.
Write Rectangle(width, height) with area(), can_hold(other) (true only when other is strictly smaller in both directions), and square(size), an alternative constructor written as a classmethod.
Each exercise pairs a worked example with a twin problem to solve in a real editor; the tests run the moment you do. Interview mode hides the example: solve it from memory, without the hint or the solution, and it counts as solved cold. Progress is saved in your browser, and in your account if you sign in.
