Zusammenfassung:Like many new ideas, object oriented programming (OOP) does not yet have a universally accepted definition. Even the terminology of OOP can vary greatly from one system or language to another. This paper introduces OOP to the newcomer in a language-independent manner. The underlying theory of OOP is presented to give the reader the basics necessary to understand the nuances of the various OOP languages that are available.
