divmod() protocol implementation

Implementing the protocol that divmod() uses under the hood.

python

# divmod() - implementing the protocol
class Custom:
    def __divmod__(self):
        return "custom result"

obj = Custom()
print(divmod(obj))

Understanding the dunder methods that divmod() calls helps you customize behavior for your own classes.

Handling unusual inputs and edge cases.

python

# divmod() edge cases
print("Edge case handling for divmod()")

# Type checking
print(type(42))

Knowing these edge cases prevents subtle bugs in production.
