bill gates asked: >can somebody explain what does object-oriented programming mean? Very short definition from Bertrand Meyer, who designed Eiffel (most likely the best production language, streets ahead of Java): "Object-oriented design is construction of software systems as structured collections of abstract data implementations, or 'classes'." He also said: "'Object-Oriented' is a misnomer; 'Class-Oriented Analysis, Design and Programming' would be a more accurate description of the method." jiri
