QUESTION 1:
Consider that for much of this semester we will be talking "Object Oriented" (O-O) primarily in the form of "Object Oriented Analysis" and "Object Oriented Design".
To answer the following questions, use any available resource, including YouTube, Google, Google Scholar, Researchgate.net, HU Library resources or other selected sources. Research the topics of "Object Oriented Analysis" and "Object Oriented Design". Answer the following specific questions:
1a. What is the definition of "Object Oriented (O-O)"?
1b. How is "Object Oriented" related to (same, different?) the technique called "Structured Methods"?
Compare and contrast these two methods. (Hint: Structured Methods came first. It is possible that dissatisfaction with Structured Methods and the resulting software products led to some of the motivation for O-O).
1c. What are the key characteristics / attributes of O-O? (Hint: Characteristics such as "Inheritance" and "Encapsulation" should be identified). Please
1) Identify each key characteristic / attribute that you find,
2) Define each key characteristic, and

1d. What is the History of O-O?
How / where / when did it start?
Who were the original authors of the idea? What was the original motivation for O-O?
