One reason you may be having difficulty is that unlike some languages
(C++/Java) object-orientation is not a be all and end all in Python, in
fact you could work with Python for a long time without really 'doing it'
at all (well other than calling methods/properties on existing API's).
Having said that here's what I would suggest ...
Could do worse than this :
http://www.diveintopython.net/**object_oriented_framework/**index.html<http://www.diveintopython.net/object_oriented_framework/index.html>
This example seems to tell you need the concept of dictionaries to
explain object oriented programming, is this really necessary?
and this
http://docs.python.org/**tutorial/classes.html<http://docs.python.org/tutorial/classes.html>
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

I would recommend Bruce Eckel's Thining in Python. Check it out here

I'd forgotten about that so thanks for the reminder.
