OOP

# Creating a class
class Hello:
    def method(self):
        return 'hello'
 
#  Or the now official way (compatible with python3)
class Hello(object):
    pass
 
h  = Hello() # Creates an instance of the class Hello
 
h.value1 = 23 # adds an attributes to the instance h
 
Hello.value2 = 45 # adds an attribute to the class and all its instances. 

You can add attributes and methods on the fly.
