An interesting article can be found at O'Reilly, by Joey Lott, the author of ActionScript Cookbook arrived on-line today. The book published last month provides Flash user's their own cookbook. Will it generate the sales numbers that The Perl and Python Cookbooks did for O'Reilly?
Mr. Lott says, "Just what is an object, after all? Again, Flash and ActionScript come to the rescue. In ActionScript one of the most central types of object happens to be something that can be seen, something with which almost every Flash developer is already reasonably familiar -- the movie clip. Finally, here is an object that we can see. So with this in mind, let's begin by first talking about the definition of an object."
Is Flash the idea environment for learning OOP? If we stick around for a while we might find out, since this is the first in a multi-part series.
