print(x)

Output:
<object object at 0x000002926D658190>

x = object()
print(type(x))

Output will be:- <class ‘object’>

Example 3:

You can see all the attributes of object using python dir() function.

x = object()
print(dir(x))

Output:

['__class__', '__delattr__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__init_subclass__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__']

Example 4:

If you try the add property in object, you will get an error.

x = object()
x.name = 'Programming Funda'
