Suppose I have:
class myclass:
def __init__(self):
self.foo = "bar"
where the value of foo needs to be available to users of myclass. Is it OK to just read the value of foo directly from an instance of myclass? Should I add a get_foo method to myclass or perhaps add a foo property? What's the best practice here?
