Swift loves OOP as well as POP (not to mention FP). They are both complementary techniques which are great at solving certain kinds of problems.</span><br style="font-family:Palatino-Roman;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px"><br style="font-family:Palatino-Roman;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px"><span style="font-family:Palatino-Roman;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;float:none;display:inline!important">-Chris</span><br style="font-family:Palatino-Roman;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px"></div></blockquote><br></div><div>Swift is the Hannah Montana of programming languages.</div><div><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVjRe8QXFHY" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVjRe8QXFHY</a></div><div><br></div><div>-- E, a mommy</div><div><br></div><br></div><br>_______________________________________________<br>
