Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a style of programming characterized by the identification of classes of objects closely linked with the methods (functions) with which they are associated. It als [..]

(OOP) a programming technique and a characteristic of programming languages often associated with graphical user interfaces. Object-oriented programming treats data items as “objects” belonging to a c [..]

Internet Glossary A type of programming in which programmers define not only the data type of a data structure, but also the types of operations (functions) that can be applied to the data structure. In this way, the data structure becomes an object that includes both data and functions. In addition, programmers can create relationships between one [..]

A type of programming that combines data structures with functions to create reusable objects. It works something like this: Programmers can create modules that do not need to be changed when a new ty [..]

A type of computer programming that allows programmers to define the following as objects: data types, data structures, and the functions or operations that are to be applied to the objects. Object-or [..]

Object-oriented programming is a programming technique that speeds the development of programs and makes them easier to maintain through the re-use of "objects" that have behaviors, characte [..]

Computer languages and programming philosophy that emphasises modularity amongst the elements of a program and their sharing of properties and intercommunication.

A programming technique that speeds the development of programs and makes them easier to maintain through the re-use of "objects" that have behaviors, characteristics, and relationships asso [..]

(OOP). An approach to programming in which each data item with the operations used on it is designated as an object; the routines used to operate on the data item are called methods; and objects are g [..]

Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a software programming model constructed around objects. This model compartmentalizes data into objects (data fields) and describes object contents and behavior th [..]

Object-Oriented Programming, Systems, Languages and Applications (OOPSLA) is an annual conference held by the Association for Computing Machinery's (ACM) Special Interest Group for Programming La [..]

In object-oriented programming, we do not only divide the program into subprograms ("functions" or "methods"), but group data and methods into "classes". This makes it ea [..]

A programming paradigm based on the concepts of objects

is an approach to solving programming problems by creating objects

A revolutionary new way of looking at computer programming. Historically, programs have been viewed as procedures (or we may think of these as "verbs") that operate on data. OOP take [..]

A way to structure programs as collections of objects

A programming paradigm that uses "objects" to design applications and computer programs.
