How does this code create a class?

[Pedroski55]

I don't understand classes in Python!

Why do I get a class like this, without declaring a class??

Employee = type("Employee", (object,), dict())

Enter Employee in Idle:

Employee

Output:
<class '__main__.Employee'>

Make an instance of Employee:

employee = Employee()

# Set salary to 1000
setattr(employee,"salary", 1000 )

# Get the Salary
value = getattr(employee, "salary")
print(value) # returns 1000
employee.salary # returns 1000
