Wow, amazing explanations!

My bad; I meant prior programming experience outside Python (which
consists of some BASIC from, oh, 20 years ago).

Anyway, with the explanations I'm slowly getting my head around it
all. I'm sure I'll be back with more questions as soon as I can
formulate them. My biggest problem, which everyone (except this list)
skimmed over was the __init__ and self parts. Now that I've had those
explained to me, it's starting to make sense.

Thanks to everyone, again.

best regards,
Robert S.
