- Objects for projects: OOP's domination of procedural programming
- Object-oriented programming OOP now dominates the procedural-programming paradigm in many application areas. Developers often choose OOP and scripting languages—such as C++, Java, and Python—for project implementations because these languages provide a way to form appropriately realistic models of real systems and processes. Actually, avoiding OOP technology may produce less-than-optimal designs...
