Object Oriented Programming

(Read chapters 10, 11, and 12 of Programming Perl book)

Just found a REALLY good tutorial: http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6.1/pod/perltoot.html. No point in me writing all this stuff :-)

Basically the only thing that's important about OOP in Perl is that Perl doesn't provide any direct OO features. C++ and Java have a "class" concept. In Perl, there is a package (namespace) concept, which along with hashes we use as our objects. More on this in class.
