Magic Method Arithmetic Operators

[ClownPrinceOfCrime]

Is it possible to use more than 2 parameters for magic methods/Dunders for arithmetic operators? The following is my code

class Point():
    def __init__(self, x, y):
        self.x = x
        self.y = y

    def __str__(self):
        return f"Point ({self.x}, {self.y})"

    def __add__(self, other):
        return Point(self.x+other.x, self.y+other.y)

point = Point(1, 2)

other = Point(3, 5)
print(point+other)

I want to get something like

def __add__(self, other, something_else):
        return Point(self.x+other.x+something_else.x, self.y+other.y+something_else.y)

Also, for some reason the indentations dont show, so please ignore that :)

We will certainly not ignore that. Instead, you will read the BBCode help page to learn how to make the indentation show.

About the issue, how would you invoke your extended __add__ operator? If you write

obj + other + something_else

in the code, it will call

obj.__add__(other).__add__(something_else)

and not

obj.__add__(other, something_else)

the familiar arithmetic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, etc. are binary operation

If say you had a load of points in a collection that you wanted to add up, that could neatly be done with reduce.
