I'm still confused about the difference between a class and an object. Can someone explain with a simple example?

Great question! Think of a class as a blueprint and an object as the actual house built from that blueprint. The class defines what properties and methods exist, and the object is the concrete instance with actual values.

That's a great analogy! So the 'new' keyword is like building the house?

Exactly! 'new Person()' creates a new instance of the Person class - it's like building a new house from the blueprint.
