When I need to use classes? Any good examples?

This is a question that is more about Python in general rather than Python for S60. See this.

hi DrivingmobileInnovation
better you have a look at this

I'm not sure how a module differs from a class. Could you explain me?

A module is like a plug-in, or an addon, if you will. It's a separate file whose contents you import. For example, appuifw is a module.

A class is an object, something that has attributes and methods. For example, app is a class in the appuifw module.

A class is an object, something that has attributes and methods. For example, app is a class in the appuifw module.

But why I can't just use only functions (instead of classes)?

hi DrivingMobileInnovation
i think the question is more of a object orientated concept rather than a PyS60.
As far as i know classes are nothing else but a group of functions only but classes keeps different types of function in one group and in an organized manner.
In functions we can have nested functions but its not a good programming technique it will be tedious and inefficient.
hope this helps.

Of course you can use only functions to make your applications. I for one recommend it, as working with classes can get confusing. But don't forget classes can also be useful.

Module in Python:
The basic unit of code reusability in Python: a block of code imported by some other code. Three types of modules concern us here: pure Python modules, extension modules, and packages.
