Class

Used to define a class. Classes are templates from which objects are created – classes are object types, as opposed to value types. Objects are held by reference and are reference-counted. The memory an object occupies is freed when there are no more references to it – when no variables in the process refer to them.

Class name
    [ classmember ]
    [ classmember ] …
End Class
