Line 7: '''Object-oriented programming''' ('''OOP''') is a [[programming paradigm]] based on the concept of "[[Object (computer science)\|objects]]", which can contain [[data]] and [[Computer program\|code]]: data in the form of [[Field (computer science)\|fields]] (often known as [[Attribute (computing)\|attributes]] or ''properties''), and code, in the form of procedures (often known as ''[[Method (computer science)\|methods]]''). A common feature ~~of objects~~ is that ~~procedures~~this do not make sense (or methods) are attached to them and can access and modify the object's data fields. In this brand of OOP, there is usually a special name such as [[this (computer programming)\|{{code\|this\|C++}}]] or {{code\|self\|swift}} used to refer to the current object. In OOP, computer programs are designed by making them out of objects that interact with one another.<ref>{{Cite journal \| last1 = Kindler \| first1 = E. \| last2 = Krivy \| first2 = I.
