One reason you may be having difficulty is that unlike some languages

Could do worse than this :

This example seems to tell you need the concept of dictionaries to
explain object oriented programming, is this really necessary?
and this

Unfortunately, the trouble with this explanation is exactly what made
me ask the original question: it starts from concepts in c++ making it
very hard to understand for someone who does not know that language
already.

read together.

Judging by your question this is a probably a little advanced for now but you 
could bookmark it for the future:

Here's the corresponding PDF to go with the video:

Can someone here on this list give a trivial example of what object
oriented programming is, using only Python?

thanks in advance
