A quick example

Before we dig deep into the theory, let's take some time to make a class and see it in action.

First, we will need to create a sphere in our Hierarchy view:

1. Click on the Create button.
2. Hover over 3D object and click on sphere.
3. Name the sphere Ball.
4. In the Inspector, make sure that all position elements are 0. Alternatively, you can simply click on the gear icon and select reset.
5. With the sphere reset, change its position.x to 3.05, position.y to 0.87, and position.z to 4.15.

Now, we will add a script file to the ball:

1. Click on the Add Component button in the Inspector.
2. Scroll down to New Script and click on it.
