Line 9: == Contrast with OOP == The claim is that traditional [[object-oriented]] design principles result in poor data locality, especially if [[runtime polymorphism]] is used (which itself is especially problematic on certain processors). <ref>{{cite web\|title=data oriented design - why you might be shooting yourself in the foot with OOP\|url=http://gamesfromwithin.com/data-oriented-design}}</ref> Although OOP does superficially seem to 'organise code around data', the practice is quite different. OOP is actually about organising [[source code]] around [[data types]], rather than making the grouping of individual fields and arrays convenient for access by specific functions. It also frequently hides layout details under [[abstraction layer]]s, whilst a data-oriented programmer wants to think about this first and foremost. == Other languages ==
