understanding class

5
Hi,

I've been learning python for quite a while now, and I understand everything very well, except class.

So, if somebody could help me understand class. I think my main problem with not understanding class is that I'm not sure how I should use it in a program.

Thanks.

Classes can be difficult. It was for me untill I found out how little of a deal it really was. Here's an example I made a while ago if you need help:

The point of classes are to make more of one thing that can act dependently but still work as told. This si so you can make a bunch of one thing, but only write a few lines of code. Just think of it as a regular object you can make, but instead it's got 'self.' in front of everything so it knows it's talking about its self.
