Presented by Vance Lucas
In defense of object-oriented programming - How and why you should use object oriented programming for your next project.
This talk is for PHP programmers who are just learning about object oriented code, who cling to old excuses
("object oriented code is slower"), or who are otherwise unconvinced of its usefulness. Concrete real-world examples of common
scenarios and challenges that programmers face will be presented, and how taking an object oriented approach is better than a procedural
one in most cases. Copious code examples in both object oriented and procedural approaches will be provided throughout, and the
differences and benefits of the object oriented approach will be explained.
