A professor-emeritus (the University of California, Berkeley) and licensed contractor as well as architect, Christopher Alexander (born October 4, 1936 in Vienna, Austria) is noted for his design of building complexes in California, Japan, and Mexico. However, he may be famous mostly for his popular appeal and his theoretical contributions. With Sarah Ishikawa and Murray Silverstein, he produced and validated an architectural system, a pattern language designed to empower any human being to design and build quite well at any scale. He ...

Cargo cult programming is an incompetent style of computer programming characterized by the ritual inclusion of code or program structures that serve no real purpose. Cargo cult programmers will usually explain the redundant code as a way of working around a computer bug encountered in the past. Typically, however, they do not understand either the bug or the apparent solution (compare shotgun debugging, voodoo programming). Cargo cult programming can also refer to the practice of (over)applying a design principle blindly witho ...

In Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), an instance of a program (i.e. a program running in a computer) is treated as a dynamic set of interacting objects. Objects in OOP extend the more general notion of objects described above to include a very specific kind of typing, which among other things allows for: data members that represent the data associated with the object. methods that access the data members in predefined ways. In the case of most objects, one can access the data members only through the meth ...

OOP is subject to much contention as to its precise definition or its principal ideas. In the most general terms, OOP is the practice of writing program text decomposed in modules that encapsulate the representation of one data type per module, instead of collections of functions that call each other, or clauses that trigger each other. They have been brought together, with associated terminology, to create a programming framework. ...

To understand the motivation for using callbacks, consider the problem of performing an arbitrary operation on each item in a list. One approach is to obtain an iterator over the list, and then operate on successive objects obtained from the iterator. This is the most common solution in practice, but it is not ideal; the code to manage the iterator must be duplicated at each point in the code where the list is traversed. Furthermore, if the list is updated by an asynchronous process, the iterator might ...

Objective-C is a very "thin" layer on top of C. Objective-C is a strict superset of C. That is, it is possible to compile any C program with an Objective-C compiler, which cannot be said of C++. Objective-C borrows its syntax from both C and Smalltalk. Most of the syntax, including the traditional function calls, is inherited from C, while the syntax for certain object-oriented features, including message-passing, was partially borrowed from Smalltalk.

Christopher Alexander - Writings. The Timeless Way of Building described the perfection of use to which buildings could aspire. "There is one timeless way of building. It is a thousand years old, and the same today as it has ever been. The great traditional buildings of the past, the villages and tents and temples in which man feels at home, have always been made by people who were very close to the center of this way. It is not possible to make great buildings, or great towns, beautiful places, pla ...

The concept of objects and instances in computing had its first major breakthrough with the PDP-1 system at MIT which was probably the earliest example of capability based architecture. Another early example was Sketchpad made by Ivan Sutherland in 1963; however, this was an application and not a programming paradigm. Objects as programming entities were first introduced in Simula 67, a programming language designed for making simulations, created by Ole-Johan Dahl and Kristen Nygaard of the Norwegian Computing Centre in Oslo.

The factory determines the actual concrete type of object to be created, and it is here that the object is actually created (in C++, for instance, by the new operator). However, the factory only returns an abstract pointer (or wrapper class) to the created concrete object. This insulates client code from object creation by having clients ask a factory object to create an object of the desired abst ...

Callback functions are also frequently used as a means to handle exceptions arising within the low level function, as a way to enable side-effects in response to some condition, or as a way to gather operational statistics in the course of a larger computation. Interrupt handlers in an operating system respond to hardware conditions, signal handlers of a process are triggered by the operating system, and event ...

There have been several attempts on formalizing the concepts used in object-oriented programming. The following concepts and constructs have been used as interpretations of OOP concepts: coalgebraic datatypes existential quantification and modules recursion records and record extensions F-bounded polymorphism Attempts to find a consensus definition or theory behind objects have not proven very successful, and often diverge widely. For example, ...
