Tutorial 3 - Classes and Objects

Classes and Objects

Objects are collections of related code and data
Everything in Java and Groovy can be considered an object

A class is a higher level description of an object.
- For example a 10-Q is a specification developed by the SEC and can be thought of as a "Class". A quarterly report issued by IBM for Q2 2005 can be thought of as an object of the class 10-Q.
