python中类的用法_什么时候最好在Python中使用类？

I'm new to python and programming in general, so would really appreciate any clarification on this point.

For example, in the following code:

#Using a class

class Monster(object):

def __init__(self, level, damage, duration):

print self

self.level = level

self.damage = damage

self.duration = duration

def fight(self):

print self

print "The monster's level is ", self.level

print "The monster's damage is ", self.damage

print "The attack duration is ", self.duration

def sleep(self):

print "The monster is tired and decides to rest."

x = Monster(1, 2, 3)

y = Monster(2, 3, 4)

x.fight()

y.fight()

y.sleep()

#just using a function

def fight_func(level, damage, duration):

print "The monster's level is ", level

print "The monster's damage is ", damage

print "The attack duration is ", duration

fight_func(1, 2, 3)

fight_func(5,3,4)

The pure function version seems cleaner and gives the same result.

Is the primary value of classes that you can create and call a number of methods on an object, e.g. fight or sleep?

Your example is rather simplified.

In a more complete example fighting wouldn't just display the current state - it would also modify that state. Your monster might get hurt and that would change its hit points and morale. This state has to be stored somewhere. If you use a class it would be natural to add instance variables to store this state.

Using only functions it would be more difficult to find a good place to store the state.
