in python 3 can we define any variable to represent instance of a class code example

Example: class python 3

A class is a block of code that holds various functions. Because they
are located inside a class they are named methods but mean the samne
thing. In addition variables that are stored inside a class are named 
attributes. The point of a class is to call the class later allowing you 
to access as many functions or (methods) as you would like with the same
class name. These methods are grouped together under one class name due
to them working in association with eachother in some way.

#example
# To create a simple class:
class Shape:
  	def __init__():
      	print("A new shape has been created!")
      	pass
    
    def get_area(self):
		pass

# To create a class that uses inheritance and polymorphism
# from another class:
class Rectangle(Shape):
  
	def __init__(self, height, width): # The constructor
    	super.__init__()
        self.height = height
    	self.width = width

	def get_area(self):
      	return self.height * self.width
