Decorators in Python

Decorators is a function that takes another function as argument and returns a fucntion.

Think of it like this:

• A decorator is like a gift wrapper. It takes a plain gift (a function) and wraps it to make it look special (adds extra functionality).
• The gift inside (the original function) doesn’t change, but now it comes with something extra!

How does it work?

1. You have a normal function.
2. You “decorate” it using a special function (the decorator).
3. The decorator adds new behavior to the original function.
