invest_crypto.client_list.append(self)
I am wondering about the phrasing above.
When you are in the dunder init function, you normally create and change items
in YOURSELF so why is your code not changing self.crypto_client_list?
And what are you appending to before ever creating it? Would it kill you to
create some form of container in the main class definition initialized
appropriately to some variation of empty?
I won't claim to fully understand what the code wants to do. Adding yourself to
the list of clients may make sense to you but if you understand object oriented
programming, you may have an inkling that objects need to be CREATED somewhere
before they can be used. Most of your code looks like it is DEFINING an object.
The last few lines try to access a method in an object that has never been
instantiated. Yes, you do have a way to store methods in a class and call them
without any objects but this is not a case like that.
You need something like "myobj = invest_crypto(args)" and then the rest of your
code can do changes and calculations and perhaps create other similar or
different objects. You seem to be using a method that reads in a file and dumps
a version of the contents and that might work if you did a line like this next:
"myobj.access_client_details()" albeit not how I would name it or do it.
And, of course, your print() again names the class, not an instance of a class.
Your code wraps in a few places and I wonder if it contains errors as in this
set of lines:
return f"('{self.name}', '{self.surname}', '{self.amount_Deposited}',
'{self.amount_to_transfer}')"
Is that really how you think you set up a formatted string?
Even if you get that working, how does the print statement know what to do with
a list of objects?
Some might design a method you can call to print the contents of a list which
would loop over the list. But is there ever more than one client (yourself) in
the list?
The above rambling is just reflecting my opinion that you have not learned
enough or thought it through and may even be copying and modifying various
snippets of code perhaps from places where it works to a place that might be
better designed from scratch.
Have fun. As someone else mentioned, smaller more focused examples may work
better to get you up to speed, but then again, we often find out someone is
given a homework assignment ...

i just finished learning oop as a beginner and trying to practice with it
but i ran into this typeerror issue, help please.
Traceback (most recent call last):

this is my code below:

self.name = name
self.surname = surname
self.amount_Deposited = amount_Deposited
self.amount_to_transfer = amount_to_transfer
invest_crypto.client_list.append(self)

self.customer_transfer = (self.crypto_current_rate * self.
amount_Deposited) + self.amount_Deposited
return self.customer_transfer
