Hands-On Design Patterns with C# and .NET Core

A class

A class is a group or template definition of the methods and variables that describe an object. In other words, a class is a blueprint, containing the definition of the variables and the methods that are common to all instances of the class called objects.

Let's take a look at the following code example:

public class PetAnimal{    private readonly string PetName;    private readonly PetColor PetColor;    public PetAnimal(string petName, PetColor petColor)    {        PetName = petName;        PetColor = petColor;    }    public string MyPet() => $"My pet is {PetName} and its color is {PetColor}.";}

In the preceding code, we have a PetAnimal class that has two private fields called PetName and PetColor, and one method called MyPet().
