A Primer of Object Orientation: What It Is and What It's Good For 
The computer industry is moving toward the adoption of the object-oriented approach as the standard mode of analyzing, designing, and implementing applications. This paper applies the new orientation to the task of simulating the traffic of people in a building. This paper is a primer to a new technology which promises to revolutionalize programming: object orientation. To make the presentation concrete, I will build it around a case history. Imagine that an architect asked you to create a simulation that will help her determine how many elevators anew building will need to keep the average wait for an elevator to, say, under thirty seconds. How would you go about this task?

QuarkXPress is categorized as page layout software - software that lets you easily place text and graphics on a page. Using well-designed page layout software has the feel of moving actual columns of text, blocks of color, and images around and pasting them into place. Unlike a word processor, which is driven by a continuous text flow, QuarkXPress gives you complete control over the elements you place on each page. QuarkXPress is a standard at most publishing companies and advertising agencies.

Word can be very unforgiving! Once a document becomes too unwieldy, it starts to stagger and then collapses, wiping out all the formatting in the process. In some cases, you can recover the raw text but, as a rule, the layout and presentation is destroyed. However, there are several ways that reduce the likelihood of this occurring.
