How can I reach a private variable within the object

Question

I would like to modify an object private variable

class Example():
    __myTest1 = 1
    __myTest2 = 1
    def __init__(self):
        pass
    def modifyTes         


        

Answer 1

Try adding a single underscore and the class name to the beginning of the variable.

def modifyTest(name = 'Test1', value):
    setattr(self, '_Example__my' + name, value)
