Every time I read one of Steve's blog posts, I realize how little I know about software development.

Here are a couple more links with good discussion about prototype-based programming:

* http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?PrototypeBasedProgramming * http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?ClassesPrototypesComparison

SY is mostly talking about prototype-based programming in terms of Javascript, but it is also well-supported in some other languages, especially Lua (The chapter on OO in _Programming in Lua_ is IMHO the clearest explanation of prototypes I've found.), and it's probably possible to implement an inefficient-but-good-enough-for-brainstorming version in most languages.

Thanks for the links... I love the old c2 wiki.

There are some real gems in there. :)

It's only old in the sense that it has been there for a long time. It's still active and updated frequently.
