Java and Database Connectivity

A bit about Object Orientation (ii): languages

Object Oriented languages represent taxonomies
Classes describe groups of things
- which share the same properties and the same behaviour
An Object has all the behaviours described by its class
- And by its class's 'superclass'
  - And by the superclass's superclass
We describe behaviours by adding methods
We specialise behaviours by specialising methods
