Class

A class may refer to any of the following:

In object-oriented programming, a class is a set of related objects that share common characteristics. Classes are an important component that makes object-oriented programming a powerful and flexible programming paradigm.

With CSS, a class is a selector used to specify a style on an HTML element. For example, the below class called center could be created to center text on a paragraph of text.

CSS class code

.center { text-align: center; }
HTML

tag with center class

This text would be centered.

As can be seen in the above CSS code, every class needs a period in front of the name to be defined as a class. A line that does not begin with a period is considered an HTML tag selector and an id selector begins with a #.

Note

Never start a CSS class with a number since not all browsers support class names beginning with numbers.

With an IP address, a class is a section or group of IP addresses. See our IP definition for a listing of each of the IP classes.

In a game, a class is a character based on abilities. For example, a warrior and mage are both examples of game classes. A warrior is often strong can withstand a lot of damage, but does not deal much. A mage is the opposite.
