In class object, how to auto update attributes?

by

if updating one property due to an update on another property is what you’re looking for (instead of recomputing the value of the downstream property on access) use property setters:

class SomeClass(object):
    def __init__(self, n):
        self.list = range(0, n)

    @property
    def list(self):
        return self._list
    @list.setter
    def list(self, val):
        self._list = val
        self._listsquare = [x**2 for x in self._list ]

    @property
    def listsquare(self):
        return self._listsquare
    @listsquare.setter
    def listsquare(self, val):
        self.list = [int(pow(x, 0.5)) for x in val]

>>> c = SomeClass(5)
>>> c.listsquare
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16]
>>> c.list
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
>>> c.list = range(0,6)
>>> c.list
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> c.listsquare
[0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25]
>>> c.listsquare = [x**2 for x in range(0,10)]
>>> c.list
[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
