I am self taught at most things I know.

What I would have given for someone to explain objects to me when I was trying be an object oriented programmer.

>objects are the things you think about first in designing a program and they are also the units of code that are eventually derived from the process.

Huh? Classes would confuse me. Methods would confuse me. I could get things to work but not understand why or how to extend and abstract properly.

At some point of learning you just need to be told the answer so you can move on.
