Abstract
So far just about every topic about the basics has been covered. There is one more topic that is quite worthwhile and will help you to better understand how to make your code more modular. This is the topic of packages. Packages are just as they are described, containers where you can insert things such as methods as well as custom types that you can create instances of in order to use as you please. If you are coming from another object-oriented programming language, the benefits of classes and objects will become self-evident.
