[Closed] Object Oriented techniques - Example 1 - "Hello Class"

@frogandtoad Of course I am here to learn as well. 

I don't understand why you are so antagonistic?

Back in the day when I was working for a living I did look after a lot of code, probably in the order of a few thousand lines, but we had one project with just over a million. OOP wasn't invented yet, so I have no idea if OOP would have helped reduce code size.

@frogandtoad If that happens it's a good thing, I just haven't seen it yet and could care less given I will likely write about the same amount of code in the rest of my life equivalent to what I would do in a few weeks when I was a paid codeslinger.

Ron, I know it's not easy... but please when replying, quote the context of what you are replying to if you can take the time to do so, otherwise, I have to guess at what thread/post you are referring to.

This is a problem of the forum software, which is pretty crap in my opinion... it has many many problems that need to be addressed!

@frogandtoad No problem, but if you mention me I will respond, that is the nature of communication after all.

How about something like: "reminiscing and waffling"

Really! and this post on a C++ thread. Not going off topic are we?

Huh?

Where did you get that idea?
I've been nothing but supportive towards you, trying to help you and other members to learn and improve your skill set, by way of promoting and introducing you and viewers to work more efficiently in C++ OOP ways.

Grumpy old man? 🙂

@frogandtoad Never a waste of time

LOL... Please read between the lines cobba, or do you need me to provide a tutorial just for you eh?

@frogandtoad Research is difficult for me, remember I am on the spectrum and learning new stuff is very tedious. Since I only have a few years left it seems like a waste of time for ME. I think I can say with confidence that I have not seen much OOP code in all the arduino code I have looked at.

@frogandtoad Why would I do that, I have freely available code in the arduino IDE samples library.

@frogandtoad Exactly

@frogandtoad TBH, I hadn't noticed that and when reading your comment it isn't displayed. I will unsubscribe now that you have brought this to my attention, but I was certain it started out elsewhere.

Again... please quote the post that you are replying to, and address the person you are replying to... Do you know how to do that?  If you don't, then please ask!  Otherwise, we have to guess who exactly you are replying to, and for what topic OK?

Research is difficult for me too, but I still do it if I am interested in the subject matter.

In fact, one of the greatest skills of the IT professional is in their research skills!

Ain't no doubt about it!

@frogandtoad I will be doing that as soon as I have responded to all the comments that mention me, it's polite.

Again... I have no idea what thread of mine you are referring too... Please take the time to copy/paste and quote the thread material with additional pertinent information to make it clear what you are talking about!

@byron I do have 3 Pi's, 2 Pi4-4GB, a Pi0 for a bird cam, many ESP8266, ESP32, a dozen ESP32-CAM's, a couple new PICO's. I will have a look at python, but since all the sample code I have looked at is C it doesn't make sense for the little projects I am working on to switch languages. I am pretty sure the arduino cloud is only C or C++.
