How to Delete All Instances of a Class in Python
A class is a module of code you add to your Python programs. After you delete the Python class from your class file, you must delete all instances of the class. An instance is the instantiation of the class, which initializes the code and adds the class to a variable. Instantiation is required to use the class functions in your code. The best way to delete all instances is to use the Windows "find" function.
