I looked at some PHP Classes earlier today and realized I didn't understand anything of it at all, so I watched some videos on classes and now I understand a little bit more, hooraay!

BUT I really wanna learn classes but I have nothing to do except my full blown CMS that I was going to do later this year :roll:
Any ideas on what you could create just to learn? Could be simple stuff (preferably) :lol:

You mean you want to learn object-oriented programming. ;)

What you could try to do? I don't really know. Just try to convert something you created earlier to use OOP instead?

There is no point doing it just for the sake of it. You need a good example of how it can be better to use classes. I will do some videos on this when I get my mic working :evil:

Just to know how they work you can just make anything at all really. If you have a login system for your site, replace all of the functions with methods in a class.

It's just what it's called, you create an instance of a class with the new keyword
$class = new class();
The $class variable is now an object.

No idea, I will try to fix my mic input tomorrow after my last exam ( :D :D :D :D :D ) If it works then I will just keep this slightly worse headset and use it to make about a million videos next week.
