The text has errors. E.g.<p>&gt; This OOP was created in 1962<p>No. The 1962 Simula I version was a dedicated simulation language and didn&#x27;t feature inheritance or virtual methods. The features we today consider &quot;object-oriented&quot; were introduced with Simula 67, which was conceived as a general purpose programming language, not only a simulation language.<p>&gt; the name “Simula” was gotten from two simulation programming languages, Simula 67 and Simula I<p>Only Simula I was dedicated to simulation; Simula 67 was a general purpose PL; Simula I was frist called &quot;Simula&quot;; the suffix was added later.<p>Anyway, the text reads as if it was generated.
