Degrees of Object-Orientation
Captions available
The idea
A language's conformance to encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism measures how object-oriented it is — Java and C# fully so, C and C++ a procedural-object hybrid, partial conformers called object based.
In practice
A rail network with fully gated, mixed, and honor-system stations still runs one schedule.
Where people slip
Degree, not membership — orientation is a spectrum.
