Classes e POO

Conceitos de Programação Orientada a Objetos variam entre linguagens. Veja como classes, herança, interfaces e polimorfismo funcionam em diferentes linguagens.

Definição de Classe e Instanciação

JavaScript

// ES6 Classes
class Person {
  constructor(name, age) {
      this.name = name;
      this.age = age;
  }
  
  greet() {
      return `Hello, I'm ${this.name}`;
  }
}

// Instantiation
const person = new Person("John", 30);

// Inheritance
class Student extends Person {
  constructor(name, age, school) {
      super(name, age);
      this.school = school;
  }
  
  study() {
      return `${this.name} is studying`;
  }
}

PHP

<?php
// Class definition
class Person {
  private $name;
  private $age;
  
  public function __construct($name, $age) {
      $this->name = $name;
      $this->age = $age;
  }
  
  public function greet() {
      return "Hello, I'm " . $this->name;
  }
}

// Instantiation
$person = new Person("John", 30);

// Inheritance
class Student extends Person {
  private $school;
  
  public function __construct($name, $age, $school) {
      parent::__construct($name, $age);
      $this->school = $school;
  }
  
  public function study() {
      return $this->name . " is studying";
  }
}

Rust

// Structs with impl blocks
struct Person {
  name: String,
  age: u32,
}

impl Person {
  fn new(name: String, age: u32) -> Person {
      Person { name, age }
  }
  
  fn greet(&self) -> String {
      format!("Hello, I'm {}", self.name)
  }
}

// Traits (similar to interfaces)
trait Greetable {
  fn greet(&self) -> String;
}

impl Greetable for Person {
  fn greet(&self) -> String {
      format!("Hello, I'm {}", self.name)
  }
}

Go

// Structs with methods
type Person struct {
  name string
  age  int
}

func NewPerson(name string, age int) *Person {
  return &Person{name: name, age: age}
}

func (p *Person) Greet() string {
  return fmt.Sprintf("Hello, I'm %s", p.name)
}

// Interfaces
type Greetable interface {
  Greet() string
}

// Embedding (composition)
type Student struct {
  Person
  school string
}

Python

# Class definition
class Person:
  def __init__(self, name, age):
      self.name = name
      self.age = age
  
  def greet(self):
      return f"Hello, I'm {self.name}"

# Instantiation
person = Person("John", 30)

# Inheritance
class Student(Person):
  def __init__(self, name, age, school):
      super().__init__(name, age)
      self.school = school
  
  def study(self):
      return f"{self.name} is studying"

      };
  }
  
  pub fn greet(self: Person) []const u8 {

Principais Conclusões

• Modelos de herança — Java, C#, C++, PHP, Ruby, Swift e JavaScript usam herança simples baseada em classes com sintaxe extends ou :; por exemplo, class Student extends Person em Java ou class Student(Person) em Python. Go rejeita herança completamente e usa embedding: type Student struct { Person; school string } incorpora os campos e métodos de Person diretamente. Rust não tem herança alguma — apenas traits que os tipos implementam. Escolha Go ou Rust quando quiser composição ao invés de hierarquia; escolha Java/C#/Swift quando precisar de taxonomias de classe claras e sobrescrita de métodos.

• Padrões de interface — Java, C#, Swift e PHP exigem declarações explícitas de implements: class Dog implements Animal. Go usa tipagem estrutural: qualquer tipo com um método MakeSound() string satisfaz type Animal interface { MakeSound() string } sem declará-lo. Python e Ruby dependem de duck typing — se tem make_sound(), funciona. As traits do Rust funcionam como interfaces: impl Animal for Dog { fn make_sound(&self) -> String { ... } }. C e Zig simulam interfaces via structs de ponteiros de função. Prefira interfaces implícitas estilo Go para flexibilidade; prefira interfaces explícitas quando quiser garantia de contrato em tempo de compilação.

• Filosofia de POO — POO tradicional (Java, C#, C++) é centrada em classes, hierarquias de herança e virtual/override para polimorfismo. Go e Rust favorecem composição e traits: "prefira composição ao invés de herança." JavaScript e Python são multiparadigma — você pode usar classes ou evitá-las completamente. Se você está construindo modelos de domínio com hierarquias claras (ex.: Vehicle → Car → ElectricCar), Java/C#/Swift se destacam. Se quer designs planos e combináveis com cerimônia mínima, escolha Go ou Rust.

• Memória e ciclo de vida — C++ e Rust exigem atenção explícita ao ciclo de vida do objeto: C++ usa destrutores virtual e RAII; o ownership do Rust previne referências pendentes. Java, C#, PHP, Ruby, Python e JavaScript usam coleta de lixo, então você raramente gerencia o tempo de vida do objeto. Go usa GC leve. Para programação de sistemas ou código crítico em performance, Rust e C++ dão controle; para desenvolvimento rápido, linguagens com coleta de lixo reduzem a carga cognitiva.
