Does the Python editor within Minecraft Education Edition allow programming using classes? I tried to create a class and instantiate it as follows. However when I run the code nothing happens. I also do not  get any error.

class myClass:

def __init__():

player.say("Object Initiated")

def saySomething():

player.say("Hello There")

oClass = myClass()

oClass.saySomething()

  Welcome fellow coder! =]

  I tried this and it worked:

  class MyStuff:

      #"""A simple example class"""

      i = 12345

  
  

  testCase = MyStuff()

  say(testCase.i)

  Thanks Debbie,

  However I am still having no luck... I am getting the following error messages for the first program:

  Line 6: can't find called function "MyStuff"
  Line 7: unknown object type; cannot lookup attribute 'i'

  You are running this in Python Azure Notebooks, not the MakeCode Python window, right?

  class MyStuff:

      i = 12345

  testCase = MyStuff()

  say(testCase.i)

  Hi Debbie,

  Sorry for the late response. I am using the MakeCode window in Minecraft. I do not know how to use the Python Azure Notebooks with Minecraft Education Edition. Can you please guide?

  All I can get to work in MakeCode is this - no function, no instantiation, no new objects in the class - I managed to keep it from throwing syntax errors but not actually working for those. Just creating variables for a class is pretty limited capability, but here you are: (P.S. Python Azure Notebooks is great!)

  class MyStuff:

      #"""A simple example class"""

      i = "Hello Classes"

  testCase1 = MyStuff.i

  player.say(testCase1)
