| This Means War! |

Object Oriented Programming.

A term that strikes fear into the heart of even the most determined newbie.

Conceptually, learning how to program in an object-oriented manner is a lot like going to war, with everything that preceded it akin to boot camp. Sure, you may know how to write functional, clean code, just as you may know how to clean a gun or live off dead beetles - but it's only when you're out in the jungle, with the bullets flying past your head, that those skills are actually put to the test. And so it is with OOP - it's a whole new programming paradigm, and it takes a little bit of getting used to.

The upside? If you survive, you'll come back to a hero's welcome, people will look at you with newfound respect, and getting a date on Saturday night will be a simple matter of flexing those OOP muscles and showing off those battle scars.

Think you can handle it?
