The Problem: Some people are fanatical about their programming methodology and refuse to acknowledge that any other system may be better. A lot of people think that object oriented programming is the only way to go and if everybody used object oriented design, all the world's programming problems would be solved. As a long time hacker, I've lived through a number of fads, including expert programming, artificial intelligence, extreme programming, structured design, and many other. All of them promised to end the world's programming problems. None of them ever did. One object oriented proponent once issued a challenge. “There is not one program that can not be made better through the use of objects,” he said. The challenge, find such a program.
