The first chapter of the GOF book is worth reading for any OO practioners. Especially the discussion on favoring composition over inheritance. Functional programmers have been using composition since day 1. It seems like the OO movement has been trying to work functional programming back in. Design Patterns is a perfect example. Many of the patterns involve classes with only methods (such as the Strategy pattern). This goes against basic OO which defines a class as encapsulated data and the methods that operate on this data. OO teams would be wise to investigate GOF and some newer literature on OO to expand the teams vision beyond the limited capabilities of Novice level OO.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
