Creating a Class

``javascript
var Mammal = require('classical').create(function() {
this.name = null;

this.constructor = function(name) {
this.name = name;
};

this.speak = function(text) {
console.log('%s says, "%s"', this.name, text);
};
});
`

Extension


`javascript
var Dog = Mammal.extend(function() {
this.breed = null;

this.constructor = function(name, breed) {
this.breed = breed;
};

this.speak = function() {
this.super.speak('Woof!');
}
});
`

Instantiation


`javascript
var Spot = new Dog('Spot', 'Dalmation');
Spot.speak(); // Outputs: 'Spot says, "Woof!"' to the console.
`

var Animal = require('classical').interface(function() {
this.speak = function() {};
});
