• I have searched the existing issues

Issue Description

A new documentation chapter titled "Constructor in Python" should be added under the Python Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) section. The chapter should explain:

• What is a constructor in Python
• Purpose of the __init__() method
• Default vs parameterized constructors
• Constructor behavior during object creation
• Use of self in constructors
• Code examples to demonstrate constructor usage

Suggested Change

Why is this important?

• The current Python OOP section covers important topics like classes, inheritance, and polymorphism, but constructors are missing.
• Constructors are essential for object initialization and are a core concept in Python OOP.
• Including this topic will make the documentation more comprehensive and helpful for Python learners.

Rationale

What needs to be done?

• Create a new markdown or documentation file, e.g., constructor-in-python.md, inside the Python OOP folder.
• Add a link to this chapter in the sidebar under the Python > OOP section.
• Follow the same format and structure used in other OOP chapters (e.g., Classes and Objects).
• Add at least 2–3 example code snippets explaining constructor behavior.
