Programmers who know the OOP basics but are not able to apply the techniques in real world problems.

In this article I primarily intend to address the following two categories of audience

My focus will not be on the jargon as I assume that readers of this article are already familiar with the fundamentals of the subject and have some experience programming in an object oriented language like C# or Java. There are numerous resources available on the Internet and in the form of text books that teach the basic principles like objects, inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation and so on.

However, the techniques provided are NOT dependent on the programming language or the GUI platform and can be applied in any other OO language like Java.īefore I go any further, I would like to express my gratitude to the STIX Fonts Project for creating such a great free font for mathematical & scientific typesetting.

The language used is C# and we are going to use WPF as our GUI framework. In this article I will try to provide the readers with a real world application of Object Oriented design and programming techniques as we build our equation editor. IntroductionĪn equation or formula editor is a computer software that helps us typeset mathematical content. In this article, I will use a strippped down version, which we will call Math Editor Mini, for pedagogical purpose. Math Editor (the full version) is Free and Open Source.
