Class with Object as a parameter

Question

I\'m trying to translate some python code to scala code. So I\'m a total noob in Python.

But why do some classes have object as a parameter but never explicitly use

Answer 1

class Table and class Table(object) are no different for Python.

It's not a parameter, its extending from object (which is base Class like many other languages).

All it says is that it inherits whatever is defined in "object". This is the default behaviour.
