Up until now i have avoided using classes but now that i am the point where i think it would be valuable to add classes to my programmes i have taken a look at them and thought, what the hell are these things used for ?

i understand the basic idea of a class ( i think )

you create the class name, then it consists of a public section that is readable to the entire programme then you have a private section that is only readable within the class and so ON!!.

if i am right? what are some good aplications for a class?

i just want a few explenasions to give me a better understanding?

and if i am way of track please let me know too.

cheers
