Query

Write a python class Const, Square, Print so that I can write, for example, Cost(5) >> Square() >> Inc() >> Inc() >> Print() and the resulting python program will print 27 to the screen.

Output

Okay, let's create these classes. The key is to use the `__rshift__` special method, which is called when the `>>` operator is used. We'll design it so that: 1. `Const(value)` holds the initial or current value. 2. Operators like `Square()` and `Inc()` have an `apply` method that takes a value and returns the transformed value. 3. The `__rshift__` method of `Const` will take the current value, apply the operation from the right-hand side object, and return a *new* `Const` object holding the result, allowing chaining. 4. `Print()` will also have an `apply` method, but it will print the value instead of returning a new one (or it can return `None`).

**Explanation:** 1. **`Operation` Base Class:** While not strictly required by the prompt, it's good practice. It defines the interface (`apply` method) that all operations should follow. 2. **`Const` Class:** * `__init__`: Stores the initial value. * `__rshift__(self, other_operation)`: This is the magic. When you write `Const(5) >> Square()`, Python calls `Const(5).__rshift__(Square())`. * Inside `__rshift__`, it checks if `other_operation` is an instance of our `Operation` base class (or has an `apply` method). * It calls `other_operation.apply(self.value)` to perform the calculation (e.g., `Square().apply(5)` returns 25). * Crucially, it returns `Const(new_value)` (e.g., `Const(25)`). This new `Const` object becomes the left-hand side for the *next* `>>` operation in the chain. * If the `apply` method returns `None` (like `Print` does), `__rshift__` returns `None`, effectively ending the chain of `Const` objects. * `__repr__`: Helps in debugging by showing the value inside `Const`. 3. **`Square`, `Inc`, `Print` Classes:** * They inherit from `Operation`. * Each implements the `apply` method to perform its specific task. * `Square` and `Inc` return the calculated numeric value. * `Print` performs the print action and returns `None`. * Basic type checking is added to `Square` and `Inc` for robustness. This setup allows you to chain operations using the `>>` operator, passing the result of one step as the input to the next, culminating in the `Print` operation displaying the final value.
