Nothing :) !

Some times ago, a detailed analysis has been done to implement (aka emulate as this is not native) an object oriented paradigm. Like in Javascript or Python, the user should just follow some coding conventions to define the object and pass it around. However I prefer using an mlist() rather than a struct() to avoid multi-dimensional issues ; a struct() have multiple dimensions defined by : a.b = 1; a // 1x1 struct a(4,5).b = 2; // resize a a // 4x5 struct with empty "b" values Do not hesitate to contribute and edit the wiki if you need / look for more tests !
