This is like Interface in Go (or Java, i don't speak Java but the article say so).

OK, but why would I use this over ABCs? (Abstract Base Class). Or is it just different?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

From what i understand, Protocol is for custom interfaces that you define (this object must have do_x() method), while ABCs are generic (this object is iterable).

@nikaro iterable means: has __iter__() method. So there's no real difference, as far as I can see.

The difference is that with Protocol you can define which method presence you want to ensure. Like i said: custom vs. generic.
