title: Using user input in classes
body: <p>I have only been programming for about a month and my question is this. Once I am done in the class defining the functions and class, how can I use the user input with the functions. Any help is appreciated the can shed a little light.     </p>
  
  <pre><code>class employee:
  
  
      def __init__(self,first,last,pay,hours):
          self.first = raw_input("whats your first name")
          self.last = raw_input("whats your last name") 
          self.pay = int(input("how much do you make an hour"))
          self.hours = int(input("how many hours do you have"))
  
  
  
          def raise_amount(self, amount):
              self.pay = int(input('how much would you like to raise the employee pay'))
  
  
  
      def overtime(self,overtime):
          if self.hours !=39:
              print ("there is an error you have overtime standby")
              num1 = self.pay / 2
              overtime = num1 + self.pay
              print self.first, + self.overtime(self.hours)
  
  
  
  print employee(self.hours)
  </code></pre>
