Abstraction in Python

Abstraction refers to the ability of managing complexity in such a way that the user is not troubled by implementation details. Abstraction enables the user to implement complex logic without needing to understand underlying complexity.

Before we dive in, let's look at an analogy to better understand the concept. Imagine you are driving a car. You use the steering wheel, pedals, and gear shift to accelerate, steer, and brake. Do you need to know the underlying details of the engine, transmission, or electrical system to do all that? No. That's abstraction—focusing on the essential features without concerning yourself with the underlying complexities.

Benefits of abstraction

Let's look at some of the key benefits of using abstraction:

• Simplifies complex systems: Abstraction allows users to interact with complex systems by focusing on essential details, hiding ...
