That seems clear enough. Everybody agree?


I believe that all of us can agree that OOP is much, much more than
"passing messages to objects." That's obviously how objects
communicate, and only one very small piece of the overall OOP "pie."

I also believe that all of us can agree that OOP is *not*
Procedure-Oriented Programming.
