Class = a category of Thing. e.g. One class of Things might be termed

"People"; another might be termed "Vegetable"; and so on.
>
Property = a characteristic of a Thing. Therefore, a "People" Thing might

have a Name property, an Age property, etc.
>
Variable = a container. You can put Things in them.
