What does Python check in duck typing?
Short answer. Only whether the object has the method being called.
What if the method is missing?
You get an AttributeError.
Remember
| Python checks the method, not type |
| Missing method: AttributeError |
A robot is not a duck. Can Python still treat it like one? Robot has a quack method, but no duck parent. Listen only calls quack. Python checks the method, not the class. Only the method matters. No method gives an attribute error.
