Object Oriented Programming Introduction Object Oriented Programming Introduction Object Oriented Programming Introduction to Computer Science II Definition Christopher M. Bourke Objected-Oriented Programming is a programming paradigm that uses [email protected] objects (data structures which have data fields and methods) which interact together within a computer program. Object Oriented Programming Object Oriented Programming Key Ideas Keep in mind When talking about OOP, keep in mind: I Modularity of design I Definitions are often blurred, authors/contexts may differ slightly I Encapsulation of data into Objects I Languages can have some, all, or none OOP features I Abstraction of an object’s behavior and representation I Programs can ignore or utilize some subset of features I Hierarchical organization of objects with subtypes inheriting behavior and state I Non-OOP languages can support some (or all!) OOP features without being “OOP” I Polymorphism ability of objects to have multiple forms in different contexts at different times I Debate still going as to “best” practices, how to do OOP, etc. I Understanding some concepts requires understanding other concepts Object Oriented Programming MotivationI Advantages Consider the evolution of computer languages I Facilitates modeling of real-world agents & problems I Machine Code Assembly Imperative Language I Supports modularity & decomposition → → I Clear demarcation of responsibilities and functionality I Each iteration still forces you to think in terms of a computer’s structure I Separates interface (the what) from implementation (the how) I Other Programming language paradigms force models/problems into I Promotes code reuse their paradigm I Bugs, side-effects, etc. can be localized, less and more predictable testing I Example: LISP assumes that all problems involve lists I Example: C assumes all problems are procedural (algorithmic) MotivationII Contrasting with Other Paradigms I In general, problems are forced into a language’s paradigm I Involves some “translation” or pigeonholing I Most modern programming languages support some OOP features I Good for domain-specific problems or just number-crunching, bad for I Features back-added due to demand or advantages that OOP provides generality I OOP vs. Declarative paradigm I Opposite of what it should be: computers should be serving our needs I OOP vs. Imperative paradigm I Languages should model our world and problems Versus Declarative Versus Imperative Declarative Paradigm Imperative Paradigm I “Declares” behavior of a program I Specifies a specific process (algorithm) that changes a program’s state I Specifies logic of computation, not control flow I Built from one or more procedures (methods, functions) I Functional, avoids state (Lisp, Scheme, Haskell) I Procedural & Structured paradigms (state changes are local or I Logic programming parameterized), not encapsulated I Domain languages: Regular Expressions, HTML, Excel, SQL I Examples: FORTRAN, C I Not necessarily Turing-complete History of OOPI History of OOPII I First compilers simply translated C++ syntax to pure C I Paradigms have “evolved” to OOP I 1983: Brad Cox & Tom Love develop Objective-C I MIT 50s - 60s: LISP “atoms” I Inspired to add OOP features to C from Smalltalk I 1960: Sketchpad (first CAD, revolutionary GUI) by Ivan Sutherland, I 1990s: OOP came to dominate programming methodologies introduced initial concepts (especially due to GUI development) I 1967: Simula 67 by Dahl & Nygaard (bank simulation; agents: I Languages updated to include OOP features tellers, customers, accounts, transactions; physical modeling) I 1995: Java! I 1972: Smalltalk by Alan Kay I 1995 by James Gosling, Sun Microsystems I Based on Plato’s Theory of Forms I “simple, object-oriented and familiar” I Allegory of the Cave I “robust & secure” I “A form is an objective ’blueprint’ of perfection” (an archetype) I “architecture-neutral and portable” I No perfect circle, just shadows, representations of it verything has a I “high performance” quintessence, an archetype, an apotheosis I “interpreted, threaded, dynamic” I 1983: Bjarne Stoustrup develops C++ I Inspired to add OOP features to C from Simula Continued RefinementsI Continued RefinementsII I Design Patterns - a general reusable solution to a common and reoccurring problem in software design (also called idioms) I Anti-patterns and “smells” I Modeling tools (UML – Unified Modeling Language) I Design-by-contract frameworks I Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) I Development of libraries, frameworks I Development of methodologies, best practices, etc. Figure : UML Diagram Example Objects Objects Abstract Data Types I Basis for Objects: Abstract Data Types (ADTs) Definition I Mathematical model for classes of data structures with similar An object is a general entity characterized by the following. behavior or semantics I Purely theoretical entities I Identity – An aspect that distinguishes it from other objects I Generalization applicable to areas other than OOP I State – properties (attributes, elements, data, fields) I Algebraic structures, AI, algorithms, etc. I Behavior – describes an object’s interface (methods, routines, I Examples: stacks, queues, maps, strings, and their operations functions) ObjectsI ObjectsII Key Concepts Key Concepts Message sending Complex Data Types I Objects provide services I Collection of multiple pieces of information I Client code (user) can access these services by sending messages I Mixed types I Example: a signal to execute one of its methods I Varying visibility I A signal to turn a Light object on() or off() I Facilitated by an externally available interface Objects III ObjectsIV Key Concepts Key Concepts Construction Object Design I General approach: decompose an entity to the point where it is I Objects are constructed rather than assigned simple enough to implement or a suitable object already exists I Construction may be specified through constructors I Keep it simple I Assignment through references I Semantics may dictate design I Contrast with primitive types I Avoid the God-Object anti-pattern ObjectsV 4 Main Principles Key Concepts Examples I An animal is a general type Object Oriented Programming involves 4 main principles I Dogs, Cats, Snakes, Lizards are all animals I How can we further develop a taxonomy? 1. Abstraction I Should the following be incorporated? 2. Encapsulation I Pets? 3. Inheritance I Gender? 4. Polymorphism I Strict is-a relationship I Examples: vehicle, automobile, truck, car, boat plane AbstractionI AbstractionII Definition Already familiar with Procedural Abstraction: the implementation of a process is codified into a reusable piece of code inside a function. Abstraction is the mechanism by which objects are given their Example: a square root function may be implemented using various representation and implementation details are hidden. algorithms. Abstraction is apparent in many areas: I Taylor series I Babylonian method I Application layers (database, middle-tier, front-end) I Some other interpolation method I System Layers I Protocol layers (OSI networking model) Abstraction III AbstractionIV Example: A sorting function I Abstraction in OOP takes this further: methods implementations are abstracted, but so are the internal representations of the objects I Selection sort? Quick sort? Other? I Objects are defined with a representation similar to is meaning I Temporary space? (semantics) while hiding implementation details I How does it swap? I Defines the conceptual boundaries of an object, distinguishing between objects In the end: who cares? I Allows the client (programmer, user) to deal with objects based on Procedural abstraction relieves us of the need to worry about their public interface without worrying about details implementation details I It just works! Abstraction in languages Abstraction Example 1 Date/Time A date/time stamp object may be defined to represent a particular point in time (with functionality for formatting, comparing and operating with durations, intervals, other date/time instances). I Abstraction of objects is achieved through its publicly available How could such an object be represented? interface I Interface specifies how you can use the object I A collection of individual numbers (year, month, day, etc.) I Specifies which methods may be signaled by client code I A single numerical value (time from a particular epoch) I May specify a contract I ISO 8601-formatted string (ex: 2012-05-04T12:20:34.000343+01:00) I In conjunction with inheritance: behavior of subtypes may change, be enhanced, etc. Abstraction relieves us of the need to worry about such details I Representation is internal to the object I Consistency and changes are handled by the object I We only interact with its interface Abstraction Example 2 Example 3 Strings Most languages support strings, but may use different representations I A null-terminated character array I A length-prefixed character array A Graph has vertices (nodes) and edges; may be represented as: I Dynamic character array I matrix I ASCII or Unicode? I adjacency list Representing a string as an object relieves us of the need to worry about I maps these details I Contrast with procedural language (C): memory management, consistency, expectations must be handled manually I Instead of worrying about details: just use it! EncapsulationI EncapsulationII Definition I A form of information hiding I In contrast to abstraction which is implementation hiding Encapsulation is a mechanism for restricting access to (some of) an object’s components and for bundling

  • BUGS Code for Item Response Theory
    JSS Journal of Statistical Software August 2010, Volume 36, Code Snippet 1. http://www.jstatsoft.org/ BUGS Code for Item Response Theory S. McKay Curtis University of Washington Abstract I present BUGS code to fit common models from item response theory (IRT), such as the two parameter logistic model, three parameter logisitic model, graded response model, generalized partial credit model, testlet model, and generalized testlet models. I demonstrate how the code in this article can easily be extended to fit more complicated IRT models, when the data at hand require a more sophisticated approach. Specifically, I describe modifications to the BUGS code that accommodate longitudinal item response data. Keywords: education, psychometrics, latent variable model, measurement model, Bayesian inference, Markov chain Monte Carlo, longitudinal data. 1. Introduction In this paper, I present BUGS (Gilks, Thomas, and Spiegelhalter 1994) code to fit several models from item response theory (IRT). Several different software packages are available for fitting IRT models. These programs include packages from Scientific Software International (du Toit 2003), such as PARSCALE (Muraki and Bock 2005), BILOG-MG (Zimowski, Mu- raki, Mislevy, and Bock 2005), MULTILOG (Thissen, Chen, and Bock 2003), and TESTFACT (Wood, Wilson, Gibbons, Schilling, Muraki, and Bock 2003). The Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) task view \Psychometric Models and Methods" (Mair and Hatzinger 2010) contains a description of many different R packages that can be used to fit IRT models in the R computing environment (R Development Core Team 2010). Among these R packages are ltm (Rizopoulos 2006) and gpcm (Johnson 2007), which contain several functions to fit IRT models using marginal maximum likelihood methods, and eRm (Mair and Hatzinger 2007), which contains functions to fit several variations of the Rasch model (Fischer and Molenaar 1995).

  • A Tutorial Introduction to the Language B
    A TUTORIAL INTRODUCTION TO THE LANGUAGE B B. W. Kernighan Bell Laboratories Murray Hill, New Jersey 1. Introduction B is a new computer language designed and implemented at Murray Hill. It runs and is actively supported and documented on the H6070 TSS system at Murray Hill. B is particularly suited for non-numeric computations, typified by system programming. These usually involve many complex logical decisions, computations on integers and fields of words, especially charac- ters and bit strings, and no floating point. B programs for such operations are substantially easier to write and understand than GMAP programs. The generated code is quite good. Implementation of simple TSS subsystems is an especially good use for B. B is reminiscent of BCPL [2] , for those who can remember. The original design and implementation are the work of K. L. Thompson and D. M. Ritchie; their original 6070 version has been substantially improved by S. C. Johnson, who also wrote the runtime library. This memo is a tutorial to make learning B as painless as possible. Most of the features of the language are mentioned in passing, but only the most important are stressed. Users who would like the full story should consult A User’s Reference to B on MH-TSS, by S. C. Johnson [1], which should be read for details any- way. We will assume that the user is familiar with the mysteries of TSS, such as creating files, text editing, and the like, and has programmed in some language before. Throughout, the symbolism (->n) implies that a topic will be expanded upon in section n of this manual.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Behavioral Subtyping, Specification Inheritance, and Modular Reasoning Abstract Behavioral subtyping is an established idea that enables modular reasoning about behavioral properties of object-oriented programs. It requires that syntactic subtypes are behavioral refinements. It validates reasoning about a dynamically-dispatched method call, say E.m(), using the specification associated with the static type of the receiver expression E. For languages with references and mutable objects the idea of behavioral subtyping has not been rigorously formalized as such, the standard informal notion has inadequacies, and exact definitions are not obvious. This paper formalizes behavioral subtyping and supertype abstraction for a Java-like sequential language with classes, interfaces, exceptions, mutable heap objects, references, and recursive types. Behavioral subtyping is proved sound and semantically complete for reasoning with supertype abstraction. Specification inheritance, as used in the specification language JML, is formalized and proved to entail behavioral subtyping.

Introduction: Zero-Cost Abstractions (and their cost) Control of Memory: Ownership Concurrency and more This section of the course is entirely new — Rust itself is not that old — and I apologise for any consequent lack of polish. Ian Stark Advances in Programming Languages / Lecture 18: Concurrency and More in Rust 2016-11-24 The Rust Programming Language The Rust language is intended as a tool for safe systems programming. Three key objectives contribute to this. Zero-cost abstractions Basic References Memory safety https://www.rust-lang.org https://blog.rust-lang.org Safe concurrency The “systems programming” motivation resonates with that for imperative C/C++. The “safe” part draws extensively on techniques developed for functional Haskell and OCaml. Sometimes these align more closely than you might expect, often by overlap between two aims: Precise control for the programmer; Precise information for the compiler.
