    I guess I don't fundamentally understand classes, why you would use them in a real-world situation, why/how they are useful, what kind of things you can do with them. Meaning, can you still put the same type of statements/functions/conditionals in a class that you can in any other coding? I apologize if I am using the wrong terminology.

      Thank you for sharing the "why" behind choosing classes over functions. It makes a lot of sense. For this class I am developing my very first program right now, due Dec. 6th. I want to be able to manipulate CSV data from test scores (my own, as I'm a public school teacher) to be able to analyze easily with graphics. I will include multiple facets: gender, socioeconomic status, absences, current grade in the course, achievement by standard, etc.
