CS 61A Lecture 17: Object-Oriented Programming I

CS 61A The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
Instructor Brian Harvey
Spring 2008

Introduction to programming and computer science. This course exposes students to techniques of abstraction at several levels: (a) within a programming language, using higher-order functions, manifest types, data-directed programming, and message-passing; (b) between programming languages, using functional and rule-based languages as examples. It also relates these techniques to the practical problems of implementation of languages and algorithms on a von Neumann machine. There are several significant programming projects, programmed in a dialect of the LISP language.

I'm using IBM's "Click keyboard" (Model M), from the end of 1995, and the original design is fro 1984.

Why? Because it's THE* keyboard. (plus it sounds as if you're typing faster - 1 push * 2 clicks)

THE=Standardized, you don't make a lot of mistakes - ie very hard to push 2 buttons in the same time, and if you miss a key (literally miss it), you can be almost sure that nothing was typed.

Wow, I didn't know I was so enthusiastic about it :-)

Um....

@Captnuendo I understand he may be the best ooper out there or whatever.. umm, but umm. If you can't make someones brain feel like what they are hearing is stimulating, um, umm , umm, everything will just mold into disorganized boredom with no change in tone or events to kinda place them in memory better. UM. UM. I'm sure this was amazing for those who already understand this stuff, and made perfect sense. UM, but consider those less understanding of it than us? UM

Um, this is the quality of teaching you will get at this, um, overpriced university, um, just so, um, the fact that you graduated, um, from here, um , will make your prestige, um, outweigh your, um, comprehension and understanding, um, so that, um, your ego, um, masks your, um, lack of comprehension, um.... i pay 6k a year for schooling and learn so much more than what all these lectures teach. It's not about the school, its about if you want to learn. prestige is for those who love, UM, oh nvm

[MrVirtualCoder]

And um, um, yeah um, you see um,....

@redfoxarts Object Oriented Programming is a war of juggeling data.

[redfoxarts]

what is OOP? im still confuse... For now our prof use visual basic 6.

[jackbond64]

@mahcuz nailed it

[JesusWASdarkSkin]

I have to eat half a goat to understand like these subjects
