Screencasts: Classes in Python
Classes are a way to bundle functionality and state together.
The terms "type" and "class" are interchangeable: list, dict, tuple, int, str, set, and bool are all classes.
You'll certainly use quite a few classes in Python (remember types are classes) but you may not need to create your own often.
