Jun 25, 2013 at 0:24 comment added boyfarrell In the post I wanted to warn about the potential pit falls of "premature objectification" of numerical code, particularly when one is starting out. I'm not adverse to using objects, see my third point: if objects can reduce complexity then they are a good idea. I agree that the examples you cite are good uses, but getting to that point requires experience.
Jun 24, 2013 at 16:08 comment added Ethan Coon I disagree strongly with the statement that OO is not a good fit for numerical programming, but where it is a good fit is at a much higher level. OO is very useful for things like physics models, meshes, solvers, etc, but is almost always inappropriate at the level of cells.
