Consider two approaches to extending your procedural programming knowledge to OOP. Think of an object as a user-defined data type (that also includes functions). Think of an object as a bunch of functions (and some variables). The second is awkward and doesn't capture the purpose of OO. The real beauty of OO is that it is "data centric" and it allows the member functions of an object to be easily testable black-boxes.
