Classes and objects

Classes, like functions, are another part of code that sits outside of the main code, executed only when called in the main flow of code. Objects are instances of a corresponding class, existing within the main flow of our code. To better understand it, think of a class as a plan of something, for example, a plan of a car. It contains information on how certain components look and work with each other. A class in Python is a general plan of something.

You can think of objects as real-life constructions based on the plan. For example, a real, working, and self-driving car would be an example of an object. You create a plan of a car (which is a class) and then you build a car based on this plan (which is an object). And of course, when you have a plan of something, you can create as many copies as you want; for example, you can run a production line to produce cars.
