# Object-Oriented Programming Features of Rust
|
|
OOP is a way of modeling programs.
|
|
|
|
Objects as a programmatic concept were introduced in the programming language Simula in the 1960s.
|
|
|
|
These objects influenced Alan Kay's programming architecture in which objects pass messages to each other.
|
|
|
|
To describe this architecture, he coined the term *object-oriented programming* in 1967.
|
|
|
|
Many competing definitions describe what OOP is, and by some of these definitions Rust is object-oriented, but by other it is not.
|
|
|
|
In this section, we will explore certain characteristics that are commonly considered object-oriented and how those characteristics translate to idiomatic Rust.
|
|
|
|
Next we will show how to implement an object-oriented design pattern in Rust and discuss the trade-offs of doing so.
