I’d like to learn how to create classes. For instance, I’d like to create a class that draws a custom shape. Like an arrow that is just a rectangle with a triangle on the end. I’d like to be able to do this sort of thing:

myArrow = new Arrow();  
myArrow.\_x = 10;  
myArrow.\_y = 50;  
myArrow.\_width = 100;  
etc . . .

Could someone point me in the right direction for where I could learn this sort of thing?

Thanks!
