[Python] Remove error from mypy for attributes set dynamically in a Python class

I am using mypy to check my Python code.

I have a class where I set dynamically some attributes and mypy keep on complaining about it:

error:"Toto" has no attribute "age"


This is my code:

class Toto:
def __init__(self, name:str) -> None:
self.name = name
for attr in ['age', 'height']:
setattr(self, attr, 0)


toto = Toto("Toto")
toto.age = 10 # "Toto" has no attribute "age"


Obviously, there could be 3 ways to solve the issue

1. Ignoring the issue with # type: ignore: toto.age = 10 # type: ignore #...
2. Using setattr to set the age of toto: setattr(toto, "age", 10)
3. Setting the attributes explicitly (self.age = 0 ...)

However, I am looking for a more elegant and systematic way at the class level.

Any suggestion?
