-Create a Class object (Python-style object model).

-The class object can be instantiated by calling itself.
-Any class functions or shared parameters can be attached to this object.
-Attaching a table to the class object makes this table shared between
-all instances of this class. For object parameters use the __init__ function.
-Classes can inherit member functions and values from a base class.
-Class can be instantiated by calling them. All parameters will be passed
-to the __init__ function of this class - if such a function exists.
-The __init__ function must be used to set any object parameters that are not shared
-with other objects of this class. Any return values will be ignored.
