Im having "TypeError: 'float' object is not callable" error. Plz anybody who can-CodePudding

class Employee:
    def __init__(self, name, salary, increment):
        self.name = name
        self.salary = salary
        self.increment = increment

    @property
    def salaryafterIncre(self):
        return self.salary * (1 self.increment)
    
    @salaryafterIncre.setter
    def salaryafterIncre(self):
        self.salary = self.salary * (1 self.increment)

e1 = Employee("shubh", 10000, 0.1)
print(e1.salaryafterIncre)
e1.salaryafterIncre()
print(e1.salary)

CodePudding user response：

you don't need to use brackets when using property. this is the feature of using property anyway

Try this;

e1 = Employee("shubh", 10000, 0.1)
print(e1.salaryafterIncre)

e1.salaryafterIncre

print(e1.salary)

CodePudding user response：

When you access the property you don't treat it as callable in python.

In your case e1.salaryafterIncre() is causing the problem. Change it to e1.salaryafterIncre

CodePudding user response：

(I'm keeping this answer basic -- this may be an oversimplification but is good enough for what you're doing).

By marking salaryafterIncre with @property, you've turned it into something that behaves a lot like a variable, rather than a method.

So when you write e1.salaryafterIncre, this actually already returns the value of this salary, which is a variable of type float. By adding () to this, you're attempting the call this floating point number as a function, which doesn't make sense! So just leave out the () when interacting with this property.
