'''Object-oriented programming (OOP)''' is a programming paradigm based on the concept of "objects", which can contain data, in the form of fields (often known as attributes or properties), and code, in the form of procedures (often known as methods).

=== Java ===

Here is a tip for those who might want to follow me into a bit of [[Java]] programming during the year- but only for [[student]]s who make strong progress with their [[ranking|websites]]!...

It's in the interests of object orientation that I always start the name of objects (such as a file or an [[image]]) with a lower case letter. Only classes (the blueprints to create objects from) have names that start with a capital letter

=== C# ===

Microsoft's Windows only version of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%2B%2B C++]. I'm not touching C#. I don't need anything in my life that's Windows only. They tried to do the same thing with [[Java]]- change it into something of their own- but [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Microsystems Sun Microsystems] won the suite against them for that

Pity the people behind C++ didn't have the teeth that [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Microsystems Sun Microsystems] had

It won't take much to move from C# into C++ ...the code is much the same. All one really needs to do is let go of the .NET stuff that is Windows only

==== MonoDevelop ====

There is a bit of a drive to port [https://www.monodevelop.com/ C# to Linux]

=== Smalltalk ===

Still, I'd rather support a drive towards other OOP languages, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smalltalk Smalltalk] for one!- just to move over to something I consider a little more exotic

''"Smalltalk took second place for "most loved programming language" in the Stack Overflow Developer Survey in 2017, but it was not among the 26 most loved programming languages of the 2018 survey."''

...yip, it's fallen behind a bit!- but sometimes some things are just too nice to let go of!
