| | Object-oriented programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Objects - Packaging data and functionality together into units within a running computer program; objects are the basis of modularity and structure in an object-oriented computer program. | | | The concept of objects and instances in computing had its first major breakthrough with the PDP-1 system at MIT which was probably the earliest example of capability based architecture. | | | OOP is a decomposition paradigm for program code, not a model for computation. |

| | What Is an Object? |
| | This conceptual picture of an object — a nucleus of variables packaged within a protective membrane of methods — is an ideal representation of an object and is the ideal that designers of object-oriented systems strive for. | | | Everything that the software object knows (state) and can do (behavior) is expressed by the variables and the methods within that object. | | | The object can maintain private information and methods that can be changed at any time without affecting the other objects that depend on it. |

| | Basic Object-Oriented Concepts |
| | A heterogeneous composite object is a composite object that is conceptually composed of component objects that are not all conceptually the same. | | | A homogeneous composite object is a composite object that is conceptually composed of component objects that are all conceptually the same. | | | Object cohesion, on the other hand, is a measure of how logically related the components of the external view of an object are to each other. |

| | Depending on the class of the object, different code will be executed by the computer. | | | Go on to an introduction to Objective-C, an extension of C which was designed for object oriented programming. | | | Programs must be thought of as a collection of cooperating pieces of data (objects) rather than a thread of control. |

| | object is in the Request "class" -- a class is the "type of thing" that the object is, and classes are how objects locate their methods. | | | That's what an object really is: it's something that the module can rearrange and use any representation of your data that it likes so that it's most efficient to operate on in the future. | | | (a constructor is just a method that creates a new object) to do all the pre-processing on our array of lines once and for all, and then store the subject, sender, and all sorts of other fields into some hash keys. |

| | Object-Oriented Software Design and Programming [encyclopedia] |
| | The computer accesses an object through the use of one of the object's methods. | | | The client does not have to be aware of where the object is located, its programming language, its operating system, or any other system aspects that are not part of an object's interface. | | | ORB support in a network of clients and servers on different computers means that a client program (which may itself be an object) can request services from a server program or object without having to know where the server is in a distributed network or what the interface to the server program looks like. |

| | Object-Oriented Programming Concepts |
| | An object is a software bundle of related variables and methods. | | | You need to understand what an object is, what a class is, how objects and classes are related, and how objects communicate by using messages. | | | A class is a blueprint or prototype that defines the variables and the methods common to all objects of a certain kind. |

| | A Laboratory For Teaching Object-Oriented Thinking |
| | The most difficult problem in teaching object- oriented programming is getting the learner to give up the global knowledge of control that is possible with procedural programs, and rely on the local knowledge of objects to accomplish their tasks. | | | Rather than try to make object design as much like procedural design as possible, we have found that the most effective way of teaching the idiomatic way of thinking with objects is to immerse the learner in the "object-ness" of the material. | | | One of the contexts in which we have used CRC cards is a three-hour class entitled "Thinking with Objects," which is intended for computing professionals who have programmed, but whose jobs do not necessarily involve programming every day. |

| | What is object-oriented programming? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary |
| | Find answers to what object oriented software is by descriptions of its elements, sample code, and brief descriptions of object oriented software products. | | | A type of programming in which programmers define not only the data type of a data structure, but also the types of operations (functions) that can be applied to the data structure. | | | One of the principal advantages of object-oriented programming techniques over procedural programming techniques is that they enable programmers to create modules that do not need to be changed when a new type of object is added. |

| | OOP - a Whatis.com definition - see also: object-oriented programming, object-oriented |
| | A real instance of a class is called (no surprise here) an "object" or, in some environments, an "instance of a class." The object or class instance is what you run in the computer. | | | Once you've identified an object, you generalize it as a class of objects (think of Plato's concept of the "ideal" chair that stands for all chairs) and define the kind of data it contains and any logic sequences that can manipulate it. | | | Since a class defines only the data it needs to be concerned with, when an instance of that class (an object) is run, the code will not be able to accidentally access other program data. |

| | object-oriented programming from FOLDOC |
| | Thus the interface to objects is well defined, and allows the code implementing the methods to be changed so long as the interface remains the same. | | | Operations on the data can _only_ be performed via these methods, which are common to all objects that are instances of a particular "class". | | | The method name is looked up in the object's class to find out how to perform that operation on the given object. |

| | A level 1 object has a null implementation; a level 4 object is optimal. | | | The second point to note is that Object Oriented development is perfectly suited to a level-based scheme (and conversely procedural development does not adapt as easily). | | | The intent is that the object shows the most basic behaviour required by the design without proceeding to full implementation, and therefore integration problems at the object level will show up sooner rather than later. |

| | Christopher Alexander: An Introduction for Object-Oriented Designers |
| | Indeed, since patterns can describe concepts and structures (e.g., coordinated groups) that are not themselves objects, the term pattern may be more fitting than class (or alternatively, the notion of a class should be broadened) at least at the level of OO design variously termed ``abstract'', ``architectural'', and/or ``functional'' (see., e.g., [20]). | | | Even though exemplified with architectural artifacts, Alexander's concerns and methods apply equally well to software systems, subsystems, objects, etc. While there are many obvious differences between houses and software, most are matters of degree at this level of discussion. | | | Booch, G., Object Oriented Design with Applications, 2nd ed., Benjamin Cummings, 1993. |

| | Building Object-Oriented Database Interfaces in PHP: Abstracting Database Tables |
| | By following this generic rule on a given database table, we're able to build programmatically a class that contains all of the core DML statements required to manipulate table rows, using the methods provided by the class, in this way acting as single access points to the table data. | | | Stepping back to the first article, I've shown a "DBIGenerator" class that quickly creates DB interface classes, spawning the corresponding objects to provide access to a given database table. | | | As you probably remember, this class doesn't scale well in real applications, since it works with a hard-coded database table and fields, thereby limiting significantly its flexibility and portability. |
