// CLASS:    MFnPartition

// *****************************************************************************
//
// CLASS DESCRIPTION (MFnPartition)
//
// MFnPartition is the function partition that is used for manipulating
// partitions of objects.  Partitions in Maya are dependency nodes, so it
// is possible for one partition to contain others.
// 
// A partition is a list of dependency nodes and dag nodes.  Partitions
// are useful for keeping track of lists of objects for many purposes such
// as selection or applying common rendering parameters.  Partitions in
// Maya are also dependency nodes, so it is possible for one partition to
// contain others..
