So, if I am understanding what everyone is saying here. I should do my best to distinguish between values that are part of the "state" of an object and values that are more disposable and can change for each computation of a value. So if I create an instance of a "wallet" class and the color of the wallet is "red". The "red" value would be ideal as a class variable as it is tied to the state of that wallet instance. However, if the wallet class contains a function to compute the tax on a purchased item, the purchase price would be a good example of a passed parameter value. Am I on the right track?
