It is possible to write procedural-style programs in an object-oriented language (and many did), but it does not bring you the full benefit of object orientation. To really exploit object orientation requires changing the way you think about the program.

Changing the way that you think about programs is not something that happens overnight, but we hope to help get you there a little quicker.
