Hi Claire, That is the beauty of using Python. You have a choice of using classes and traditional OOP techniques or sticking to top level functions. For short, small scripts it would probably be overkill to use classes. Yet the programmer still has classes in his tool chest if he/she is writing code that is going to be reused in larger projects. In contrast, languages like Java force you into doing everything with classes.
Another good resource to read is "Learning Python" by Mark Lutz and David Ascher if you want to learn more about python. Hope this helps... --Nick On Mar 2, 2007, at 5:26 PM, Silver Rock wrote: > Friends, > > I don´t see why using classes.. functions does everything already.
