- The type of an object can be a user-defined class or a built-in
- type, such as int or float. Code that manipulates class objects
- can look much like code that manipulates nonclass objects. The
- standard operators of the language can be redefined for use with
- user-defined types. Functions that perform similar operations on
- objects of different types can have the same name.
