class::=`A description of a set of similar objects that perform similar operations and encapsulate more or less similar data`.

code::verb=`Translating a program design into a computer programming language and testing to remove any errors`.

data_object::=`An $abstract view of an $object as a container of information rather than as an active participant on the piece of software`.

design::=`Producing a step-by-step or piece-by-piece description of how an analyzed problem is to be solved`.
