| | 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. |

| | Object-oriented programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | OO languages can be grouped into several broad classes, determined by the extent to which they support all features and functionality of object-orientation and objects: classes, methods, polymorphism, inheritance, and reusability. |  | | Simula (1967) is generally accepted as the first language to have the primary features of an object-oriented language. |  | | An object-oriented programming language (also called an OO language) is one that allows or encourages, to some degree, object-oriented programming methods. |

 | | Programming in object-oriented languages is more a question of how to design your code than how to write specific procedures. |  | | Although some object-oriented languages follow the object metaphor down to the statement level, like Smalltalk, the most widely known languages of today, i.e. |  | | Object-oriented concepts, however, should be learned and used in a top-down approach, starting from modeling objects and object interactions. |

| | Object-Oriented Programming Languages |
 | | Object-oriented programming languages (OOPLs) are the natural choice for implementation of an Object-Oriented Design because they directly support the object notions of classes, inheritance, information hiding, and dynamic binding. |  | | This resulted in increased object-oriented expertise such that much of the CADCS software (objects) was reused on a similar project [Kamath 93]. |  | | The costs of completely training a development staff implies that the insertion of this technology should be undertaken only on new developments (instead of maintenance of legacy systems), and only after pilot project(s) are successfully completed [Malan 95]. |

 | | These languages are still viable choices, but consider that a clean break to a new language can help developers avoid the trap of writing procedural code with a thin object veneer. |  | | In some cases, the class library is a standardized part of the language (Python); in other cases, class libraries can vary depending on the "dialect" of the language (Smalltalk) or on the vendor providing the language (early C++). |  | | The data that an object can store and its definitions for behavior are defined by a programmer in a construct called a class. |

| | Unix and Object-Oriented Languages |
 | | One of the central challenges of design in the Unix style is how to combine the virtue of detachment (simplifying and generalizing problems from their original context) with the virtue of thin glue and shallow, flat, transparent hierarchies of code and design. |  | | Object frameworks and object browsers are not a substitute for good design or documentation, but they often get treated as one. |  | | Recall that in object-oriented programming, the functions that act on a particular data structure are encapsulated with the data in an object that can be treated as a unit. |
