Difference between Java Interfaces and Python Mixin? -


i have been reading python-mixin , come know adds features (methods) class. similarly, java-interfaces provide methods class.

only difference, see java-interfaces abstract methods , python-mixin carry implementation.

any other differences ?

well, 'abstract methods' part quite important.

java typed. specifying interfaces in type definition, use them construct signature of new type. after type definition, have promised new type (or sub-class) implement functions defined in various interfaces specified.

therefore, interface not add methods class, since doesn't provide method implementation. adds signature/promise of class.

python, however, not typed. 'signature' of type doesn't matter, since checks @ run time whether method wish call present.

therefore, in python mixin indeed adding methods , functionality class. not @ concerned type signature.

in summary:

  • java interfaces -> functions not added, signature extended.
  • python mixins -> functions added, signature doesn't matter.
