What are Virtual Methods?
Author
I am reading a good book on C++ oop Visual C++ .NET Step by Step, but still can not distinguish between classes / objects / instances.
'object' and 'instance' refer to the same thing. A 'class' is the blueprint for these.
Or, if you prefer, a class is a kind of type; an object (or instance) is a kind of variable (which is of a class type).
class Person { int age; std::string name;};// That defines the 'class', which is simply the concept of a Person.Person tradone; // This is an instance.Or, if you prefer, a class is a kind of type; an object (or instance) is a kind of variable (which is of a class type).

I see, so a class is like a template,
and the object is like the real thing.
now they call it object oriented programming.
please correct my definition.
oop = "programming style in which the data and the flow of data is the main focus."
