[WIP] C++ OOP Whirlwind

-----------------------------------

Let's create a class!

class Foo
{

};

This class does precisely nothing useful.  However, what it does do is create a new type.  We can declare a variable of this type.

Foo f;

We can dynamically allocate memory for that type.

Foo *f = new Foo;

We can delete it.

delete f;

We can write a function which takes such a value as a parameter.

int bar(Foo f)
{
   return 42;
}

We can use that type in overloading existing functions.

std::ostream& operator
