Hi everyone, I was wondering if there's anyone who can offer a use case/rationale for nested class?
For, instance, in the following example (taken from here: http://www.brpreiss.com/books/opus7/html/page598.html): class A(object): def __init__(self): self.y = 0 class B(object): def __init__(self): self.x = 0 def f(self): pass My initial thought was that perhaps they inherit the behavior of parent classes, but that apparently is not the case: Are there specific situations when nested classes come in handy (perhaps for grouping conceptually related classes that don't share attributes?). Or is it typically better to keep all classes on the same level of a heirarchy, and then just use inheritance to establish parent-child relationships where appropriate?
