You don't need OOP to implement what you speak of

Authored by: celtic_hackr on Friday, April 27 2012 @ 09:38 PM EDT

OOP just adds overhead. Sometimes lots of it.

You're saying OOP when the proper term is simply "code re-use".

Everything you do with OOP I could do in C with less code and run it faster, and
in far less lines. Even WITH garbage collection.

OOP, is just convenient, and modern CPUs are fast, and disks are cheap. I use
OOP when it makes sense. But I also have piles of non-OOP APIs which I re-use
over and over.
