It's like chocolate bars.
the chocolate bar is an object with particaluar attributes.
the bar comes (usually) in packaging (like container, sweet paper/whatever...)
The packaging is an object with particular attriutes (not the same as the chocolate bar). The packaging is a container (the CONTAINER word being important) for a bar of chocolate. the packaging is a wrapper around the chocolate bar. This wrapper enables you to do things with the object it wouldn't normally be able to do itself. e.g. stay in a single position in space/time in the sunshine.
See www.javaworld.com for articales about warpping things with code examples.

Anyone(s) want to handle this? I'm tired of private emails asking me to
write their code for them.
Cheers!
