Now you should be ready to go!
Introducing Object-Oriented Programming
00:00 Object-oriented programming is a style of programming. It involves modeling things or concepts with objects. It’s a way to group related functionality together.
00:12 So if you have a bunch of functions that really are all related to a certain concept or a thing, it’s a nice way to group that together.
00:22 It’s a tool to structure your code, and it’s also a skill to practice. The thing with object-oriented programming is that it’s a bit of an art. Only with practice do you really start to get at grips with how to structure your programs with objects.
00:37 You’ll also find that no two people structure object-oriented code in exactly the same way.
00:45 This course is a part of the series Python Basics, and you’re going to need IDLE, the Integrated Development and Learning Environment, that comes packaged with Python. If you’re unfamiliar with this, check out one of the first courses in the Python Basics path for how to set up Python and IDLE. If you’ve got IDLE set up already, then you’re ready to get stuck in.
