Should this page be merged with "Class (computer science)"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.77.102.243 (talk • contribs) 16:11, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Class-based programming does not seem like a popular term. So. yeah seems like a good idea to merge the content into Class (computer science). Stevebroshar (talk) 23:11, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WRT: Class-based programming ... is a style of OOP in which inheritance occurs via defining classes of objects, instead of inheritance occurring via the objects alone (compare prototype-based programming). Definitely not! Instantiation is sortof like inheritance, but inheritance is something different. For class-based, objects are created (instantiated) from classes whereas for prototype-based, an object is created based on an object. Stevebroshar (talk) 00:55, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
