I started out with functional programming using various languages. PHP was the first time I attempted writing classes. The reason I wanted to was because I kept thinking there was a "better way" to save me time and effort on my projects. With all of my functional stuff I kept duplicating my add/edit/remove crud file and I thought why not just try making a class and extending it to save on lines of code. Then I realized that was quite slow since it was all being done at runtime. From there things only got worse as I learned about composition over inheritance, all the other rules, and also as you put it "OO naziism" in general. Everything I do is always wrong in someone's book. Progress indeed! Years later in the end it's all the same crap no matter what the syntax is. I'm still grabbing input and moving it around. I just prefer my shovel to be objects instead of functions to keep my mind occupied. Otherwise I might start thinking there really isn't much difference between being a code monkey and a factory worker. ;) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
