I suggest you look into Ole Lehrmann Madsen, Birger Moller-Pedersen, Kristen Nygaard: "Object-Oriented Programming in the BETA Programming Language", Addison-Wesley and ACM Press, 1993, ISBN 0-201-62430-3. which contains the working definition of BETA, and tells you quite a bit about the philosophy behind object-oriented programming along the way. /Jacob Seligmann ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mjolner Informatics ApS Phone: (+45) 86 20 20 00 ext. 2754 Science Park Aarhus Direct: (+45) 86 20 20 11 - 2754 Gustav Wieds Vej 10 Fax: (+45) 86 20 12 22 DK-8000 Aarhus C, Denmark Email: jacobse@mjolner.dk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BETA is better ------------------------------------------------------------------------
