Object-Oriented Design (OOD)


The aim of OOD is to build software from components called classes so that if someone wants to use a class, all they need to know is the various methods provided by that class. 

An object combines data and operations on that data in a single unit, a feature called encapsulation.  In OOD, the object is identified first, then the relevant data is identified, and finally the operations needed to manipulate the object are identified.
