Thread: Object Vs class

Hi. I am learning java programming language. I am little bit confuse between difference between object and class. I have referred many books but nothing was helpful. Anybody have any information on object and class then let me know that. Please reply me as soon as possible. Thanks in advanced.

Object is any real thing while Class is instance of class. Class is a plan of an object. Object is a run time entity. Object physically exists but class doesn't exist physically.

Objects are the entities of which the world is comprised.Everything that happens in the world is related to the interactions between the objects in the world.Many objects differ from each other only in the value of the data that they hold. Many objects are similar in many overall, generalized ways, differing only in smaller, more specific details.A class thus contain the descriptions of all the behaviors of the objects that it represents.In computer science parlance, we call the individual behaviors of a class its methods.
