Abstract

In this article we seek to show what is essential to know about the world of Object Orientation (OO) so that the student/professional feels confident in developing OO projects that follow best practices and adhere to all available technology in the area. The investment of time and money necessary for the student to feel safe and productive in the world of OO, makes many question whether all this effort is worth it, seeking to adopt less costly, but satisfactory solutions that encapsulate all the complexity of the OO.
