In the [[atom]]ic view of an object, the variables are considered to be within the [[nucleus]] and surrounded by methods. In other words, the variables and methods are [[encapsulation (computer science)|encapsulated]] within the object.
 
==Object-to-Object Communication==
 
Objects can interact and communicate with each other. If object A wants object B to perform one of B's methods, object A will send a message to object B. Consider a program which models driving aa vehicle, Object A might be you and Object B might be a car.
