About this title

Synopsis

In An Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming , Timothy Budd provides a language-independent presentation of object-oriented principles, such as objects, methods, inheritance (including multiple inheritance) and polymorphism. Examples are drawn from several different languages, including (among others) C++, C#, Java, CLOS, Delphi, Eiffel, Objective-C and Smalltalk. By examining many languages, the reader is better able to appreciate the general principles that lie beyond the syntax of the individual languages. For Sale in Indian subcontinent only Special Features: NEW! Extensive comparisons between C++, C# and Java. NEW! Integration and utilization of UML notation and diagrams. NEW! An expanded discussion of the subclass/subtype distinction. NEW! An in-depth exploration of multiple inheritances as it is used in several recent object-oriented languages, including multiple interfaces and nested classes. NEW! Examples drawn from a wider range of languages, including Eiffel, CLOS, and Python in addition to the mainstream languages. NEW! A greatly expanded exploration of the various forms of polymorphism found in object-oriented languages. NEW! An investigation of the way polymorphism is used in the creation of software frameworks. NEW! Case studies that explore the application of polymorphism in the STL in C++ and the AWT in Java. Table Of Contents: 1. Thinking Object-Orineted. 2. Layers of Abstraction. 3.
