I wanted to know if my thinking is straight about OOP, cause I'm writing =
notes one how to do stuff in Python as I learn them. =20
Here it is:
- when making an instance(object) of a class it has all the =
behavior(functions or methods) of that class.
- objects take on all the characteristics of that class
- to use the characteristics you just name the behavior
- Example: Say you had a cat(class) named Max(instance); who likes to =
play.
The class cat has Max as an object that can play.
- you have to initiate play from Max
- Max only plays when you tell it to
Feel free to add to this or set me straight because I want to be sure on =
this.
Thanks,
Cameron Stoner
