What is the difference between classes and functions?

Can you explain the difference between classes and functions in programming?

Sure! Classes are blueprints for creating objects, while functions are reusable blocks of code that perform specific tasks.

So, can you give me an example of when to use a class instead of a function?

Absolutely! Use a class when you need to model real-world entities with attributes and behaviors, like a 'Car' class.

And what about functions? When should I use them?

Functions are great for tasks that need to be repeated, like calculations or data processing, without needing to maintain state.

Got it! Can classes contain functions too?

Yes, classes can contain methods, which are functions defined within a class that operate on the class's data.
