Answer 4

Objects in python and c# is different from objects in JavaScript.

In JavaScript an object is like associative arrays of c# or dictionaries in python.
In C#, an object is like class instance in javascript.

So which language are you talking about?

Answer 5

In python if you have a class Gun as defined

class Country:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name

You can define a Country object as thus

my_country = Country("Nigeria");

Note how the self attribute was skipped. Python automatically adds it for you

You can classify objects of a class by putting them inside a list as thus

their_country = Country('United States')
countries = [my_country, their_country]
