Why is lshift not changing the values of the string

#1

Wouldn’t the lshift dunder change the value of the string

#2

Hi @Anuvrat99

class Ostream :

def __lshift__(self, other):

print(other, end=' ')
return self

cout=Ostream( )

cout << "Hello" << "world"

for first case ,
when we execute cout << “hello” , the lshift function detects variable other value as to be “Hello” ,
then it gets printed and return self ,means it returned hat class object itself , means actually the object which was just cout is now re intialized after printing “hello”.so it becomes as cout << "world" in the compiler while hello in already printed in output.

Then the same thing happens again and you see a final output as Hello World.

Hope this might helps :slightly_smiling_face:
