python - How to return a value when destroying/cleaning-up an object instance -

When I started a class in Python, I can assume it. I then call method in class which does everything. Here's a snippet:

  class TestClass (): def __init __ (self): self.counter = 0 def doSomething (self): self.counter = self.counter + 1 print 'Hiya "If __name__ ==" __main__ ": obj = TestClass () obj.do (something) Objkdo (something) Objkdo some () Print obj.counter  

as you You can see, every time I call doSomething method, it prints some text and gives an internal variable ie salary of salary. When I start the class, I set the Counter Variable to 0. When I delete the object, I want to return the internal counter variable. What would be a good way to do this? I wanted to know any other ways in addition to different stuff like:

• variable obj.counter like to reach directly .
• Creating a method like getcounter .

Thank you.

Acting on object destruction is typically frowned upon. Python provides a __ del __ function, but in some cases it can not be called.

What if you want to do something with the counter variable? Where does the data go?
