I'm wanting to create a subclass of a subclass (Barrier is a type of wall, which is a type of obstacle), and I'm wanting the barrier to have the same init method as wall with the exception that the self.type = 'barrier', but I'm not sure how to do this (I'm very new to programming so I'm sorry if this is very simple but I haven't been able to find an answer I understand). So far I have:
class Obstacle:
def __init__(self, type):
self.type = 'obstacle'
def __str__(self):
return "obstacle"
class Wall(Obstacle):
def __init__(self, origin, end):
self.type = 'wall'
self.origin = origin
self.end = end
# etc.... (i.e. there are more things included in here which the
# that the barrier also needs to have (like coordinate vectors etc.)
class Barrier(Wall):
def __str__(self):
return "Barrier obstacle"
How do I change it so that class Barrier has identical contents of the init method as Walls do, except their "self.type = 'barrier'"?
