### Object-Orientation
Objects in Nim behave quite differently from classes in Python. Objects support inheritance (not multiple inheritance).
Python-like object methods do not exist; Procs are not bound to objects:
Python-like object methods do not exist: procs are not bound to objects (however, you can use them in ways very similar to Python, see the example below)
You can call a proc on objects with the ```anObject.foobar()```, but you can do that on any type (e.g. ints and arrays) as well. You can have methods on object, but you can have methods on any types, and for all the arguments, not just the first (in C++, implicit) one.
