Este artigo faz uma abordagem introdutória ao problema da construção de “software” para cálculo matemático, propondo uma técnica de estruturação diferente seguindo o paradigma orientado a objectos. Faz-se um estudo sucinto sobre a estruturação funcional usada “classicamente” nesta área, salientando as suas qualidades e defeitos. ´E feita uma análise e projecto seguindo uma estruturação orientada a objectos, à qual se segue uma enumeração das exigências colocadas sobre as linguagens de programação que a queiram implementar. No fim refere-se as vantagens e desvantagens desta nova estrutura. Por forma a facilitar a compreensão deste trabalho, faz-se também uma introdução aos paradigmas de construção de “software” aqui referenciados.
This paper studies the problem of software construction for mathematical applications, and proposes a different structuring technique following the Object-Oriented paradigm. A short study about the “classic” functional structure used in this area is made, pointing out its qualities and drawbacks. An Object-Oriented analysis and design is performed, and from it is enumerated a set of requirements to impose on programming languages to use in implementation. At the end, the main advantages and disadvantages of this new structure are enumerated. To help to understand this work, one section is dedicated to an introduction to the usual software construction paradigms.
