<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578349 by <a href="/recipes/users/4183355/">Matthew Zipay</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/datastructures/">datastructures</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/namedtuple/">namedtuple</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/record/">record</a>). </p> <p>This is a recipe for a Python "data object." It is similar in function to namedtuple (<a href="http://code.activestate.com/recipes/500261/" rel="nofollow">http://code.activestate.com/recipes/500261/</a>) and recordtype (<a href="http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576555-records/" rel="nofollow">http://code.activestate.com/recipes/576555-records/</a>) in that it is a simple container for data, but is designed to meet three specific goals:</p> <ol> <li>Easy to subclass data objects.</li> <li>Get/set speed comparable to a simple class.</li> <li>Minimal memory consumption per instance.</li> </ol>
