getting the hang of classes.

hi people,

i am starting to get a grip of object oriented programming but one query that puzzles me is say for example if I had a battleships game, what would be in my main function ultimatelty. I hope that there would be only one class declaration called battleships and that all other classes would be derived from the original one. Is this correct ?

Thanks

Not really.
It pretty much depends on you on how you wanna implement it into the game.

If it was me I had build a class for the ship which handles the drawing of it and the rest of what it needs to do.
Then I had probably create a class Game that handles the ingame loop :).

And if you wanna shoot some monsters that basicly do the same thing like moving you create a monster class that handles what the monster actually do.

Pretty fun and easy. You work on it slowly and you can concentrate on doing 1 class at a time.

Cheers :)
