Hi All,
It would be nice if someone could forward a link which explains classes
and object.
I am still struggling to understand classes and objects better.
You can try the OOP topic in my tutorial if you like...
In a nutshell:
A class is a type, like string or integer are types.
An instance is a 'value' of that type, like 'foo' or 42.
Classes define methods (or operations) that you can apply
to the instances, like 'foo'.upper().
You can create your own data types by writing classes.
But nearly all you should ever do with a class itself
is create instances of it (at least as a beginner).
Most of the work is done by the instances, by calling
their methods.
