80 classes! -- don't bug me on this now). Thus, we can compose property
100 Classes define one special property, indicating whether a class

121 2. Meta-classes
126 modelled successfully with classes. Or, that the way classes are
127 implemented in Python and the way classes and instances behave at
133 a) leave objects as they are (instances of classes)
134 b) leave classes as they are (property packages and object creators)
138 c) consider classes as being instances of mysterious objects.
139 d) label mysterious objects "meta-classes".
147 And here we go for another round of what I said in section 1 -- Classes.
