DDL: Object-oriented programming

# January 2026: Object-oriented programming

Let’s get back to basics and talk about what object-oriented programming really is. If you’ve been living out the … at this point, I’m afraid to ask meme whenever object-oriented programming comes up, then January is for you!

If you know OOP hands-down, come to help us discuss and explain. Plus, of course, we’re DDL - that means we’re going to dive into some rabbit holes and surprise even ourselves.

We’ll focus on OOP in Python, but try out detours into other languages upon request!

DDL is devoted to discussion of technology and techniques related to dynamic programming languages: Python, Perl, Ruby, PHP, JavaScript, and sometimes something more exotic! These languages are fun and easy to get started with, yet powerful enough for all manner of professional use, and our members span the full range of experience with them.

We always leave time for general conversation and questions. Come try one of the most interactive groups around!

The Dayton Dynamic Languages User Group meets the 2nd Wednesday of each month from 7 to 9 PM. We have in person meetings at The Innovation Hub and we use Discord for a live feed of the meetings, using the General voice channel at https://discord.gg/9SgTh3T
