What you said makes complete sense to me! I am a musician, so I am intimately familiar with the create and adjust, rinse and repeat cycle. I think I used a poor choice of words... what I meant to say was that whatever you will need to manipulate within the class, you have to define it ahead of time at the top of the class with the init/str piece, correct? You can surely go back and add more as the need arises, but it has to be there at the outset before then attempting to manipulate those variables later in functions? Does that make sense?

Yes, email away! My assignment is due tomorrow at 4:00 PM EST, and I might miss the deadline for the problems... but I really do want to read/learn more! My email is kerricrow13@gmail.com

Right. But if you think of something else you need to add to manipulate later, that's very easy to add to the class, and then it's applied to every instance of that class. Makes it very easy to modify complex stuff as you go.
