making python function into a class code example

Example 1: create and use python classes

class Mammal:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

    def walk(self):
        print(self.name + " is going for a walk")


class Dog(Mammal):
    def bark(self):
        print("bark!")


class Cat(Mammal):
    def meow(self):
        print("meow!")


dog1 = Dog("Spot")
dog1.walk()
dog1.bark()
cat1 = Cat("Juniper")
cat1.walk()
cat1.meow()

Example 2: how to declare a class in python

class ClassName(object): #"(object)" isn't mandatory unless this class inherit from another
  	def __init__(self, var1=0, var2):
    
    	#the name of the construct must be "__init__" or it won't work
    	#the arguments "self" is mandatory but you can add more if you want 
    	self.age = var1
    	self.name = var2
    
    	#the construct will be execute when you declare an instance of this class
    
  	def otherFunction(self):
    	
        #the other one work like any basic fonction but in every methods,
    	#the first argument (here "self") return to the class in which you are
