# ''BioMedical ontology research and development'' - A CLASS is a collection of all and only the [[particular]]s to which a given general [[term]] applies.

===Commentary===
* "class" has a clear meaning in the context of XML; but its meaning is clearly defined in the context of the BFO and OBO Foundry. I don't think we'd want to tell people to only use "class" in one of those two ways, but we could explain the difference across contexts."
----
extension proposal (FL, 2018-05-15):
* add class as understood in mathematics (there as opposed to sets), i.e., in the sense of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_(set_theory)]
extension proposal (FL, 2018-08-21):
* extend class in object-orientation by a definition from an analysis-oriented perspective, in addition to the present implementation-oriented variant
