Object Oriented

• Shares characteristics of C++ and Smalltalk
  • Smalltalk
    • Similar object model(single-rooted inheritance hierarchy, access to objects via reference only, etc.)
    • Compiled to a byte-code (initially interpreted)
    • Dynamic memory layout plus garbage collection
  • C++
    • Same syntax for expressions, statements, control flow.
    • Similar OO structural syntax(classes, constructors, method declaration, etc.)
