Class Creation Syntax

The exploration of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) begins with a fundamental understanding of classes and objects. In OOP, every component and operation revolves around the use of them. So, now, we will learn how to construct and utilize them.

Classes and Objects

class: a blueprint or template for creating objects. It defines a set of attributes and methods that will be common to all instances of that class.
object: an instance of a class. It is a concrete realization of it, with specific values for its attributes.

Class Syntax

Creating a class is a straightforward process. A class is defined using the class keyword followed by the class name and a set of curly braces { }.

Note
You can create an object by using the class name as the data type for the variable.

Task

Create a class template using class keyword.
Create an object of the class template.
