		In computer science, a prototype is the object-class combination that prototype-based programming is based on.
		Among model railroad enthusiasts, at least in North America, actual railroadss are commonly spoken of as "prototypes".

	Ruby: PrototypeBasedRuby
		Prototype based programming is usually offered as an alternative to what is arguably the limited modeling capabilities of OO.
		First of all, a Prototype-based Object-Oriented Programming Langauge differs from a Class-based OOPL in that it has no classes whatsoever.
		We found that prototype inheritance has compelling advantages over classes in the domain of user interface programming, and can help overcome the memory constraints of a small machine.

		More recently, the philosphical focus of prototype-based programming (on concrete objects, rather than on abstractions like classes) has been recognised as at least as important as how objects are created, so this kind of programming has also been called object-based or object-centered.
		Workshop on Prototype Based Object Oriented Programming (ECOOP '96)
		Protototype-based systems were originally called prototype-based because new objects are created directly, by copying prototypes, rather than indirectly, by using classes.

	November 93 - Prototype-based OOLs
		As is the case with other object-oriented models, prototype-based programming can be based either on a purist's approach, in which every aspect of the programming language and environment uses the prototype-based model, or on a mixed programming model in which more conventional techniques are supplemented with prototype-based features.
		Prototypes form the basis of the data-description model in a prototype-based language and delegation is the mechanism by which code is dynamically selected for execution.
		You might have noticed that prototypes are simply data values, references to which are presumably stored in the objects cloned from them (commonly called their 'children'), and the delegates are also just references to objects.

	Prototype-based programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Prototype-based programming is a style and subset of object-oriented programming in which classes are not present, and behavior reuse (known as inheritance in class-based languages) is done by cloning existing objects which serve as prototypes for the new ones.
		One problem with class-based languages in the opinion of proponents of prototype based programming is that programs rarely remain static during development.
		Classes define the basic layout and functionality of objects, and instances are "usable" objects based on the patterns of a particular class.

	February 15, 2001 - Class-Based vs. Prototype-Based Languages
		One of the differences between JavaScript and the rest of the gang is that it is a prototype-based language while the other are class-based.
		JavaScript, being a prototype-based language, does not distinguish between classes and instances.
		A class-based language is based on two fundamental entities: classes and instances.

	Prototype-based programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The original (and canonical) example of a prototype based language is Self, but the class-less programming style has recently grown increasingly popular, and has been adopted for the programming languages Cecil, JavaScript, NewtonScript, Io, MOO, REBOL, and several others.
		One problem with class-based languages, in the opinion of proponents of prototype based programming, is that programs rarely remain static during development.
		Classes define the basic layout and functionality of objects, and instances are "usable" objects based on the patterns of a particular class.

	Software Maintenance and Prototype Based Languages - OSNews.com
		Prototype based programming is about rapid persistent development and revision control is still stuck in the world of files and source code merging.
		Prototype based objected oriented languages like Self and Io solve both the edit-compile-test cycle and make it easier to understand the software (steps 12, 13 and 8).
		When an object is modified in the exploratory development environment of a prototype based language it is almost always copied to a backing store where it is retrievable at a later date.

	A Trifle Absurd » Programming with Prototypes
		Although Garnet was built in Common-Lisp, it has its own prototype-based object system (KR), which is the basis of the system.
		On the other hand, the prototype system really enhances one’s ability to rapidly throw together (I had to resist the temptation to say “prototype”!) new UI gadgets that provide novel functionality; far, far less constraining than most other toolkits.
		You might be interested in the Garnet system for prototyping advanced user interfaces, which was developed at Carnegie-Mellon, and is still (somewhat sporadically) maintained at Sourceforge.

	Two New Prototype-Based Programming Languages
		The Apple Newton system was also programmed in a prototype-based language called NewtonScript.
		It featured prototypes and an interesting form of delegation.
		All NewtonScript objects had two inheritance slots, delegation first goes depth-first into the is-a-slot, then into the is-in slot which was used as a link of graphical objects to a container.

	Prototype Based Programming
		However, it seems newer versions of JS have added a "prototype" property that facilitates a "look-up" to another object that acts as the parent if the item is not found in current object.
		Apparently, JavaScript's prototypes are considered a deficiency, because the draft of the latest EcmaScript standard has full classes.
		Interesting (or perhaps frightening) to note is that the one prototype language in common usage - JavaScript- is moving away from a prototype model: http://www.mozilla.org/js/language/js20/index.html (Randy, the old link was dead.

	Self and Prototype-based Programming
		I've had a lot of fun with Io, a prototype-oriented language that reminds me of Self on its good days; I would love to use a more prototype-based metaphor for programming in Python, but Python really hasn't had any good facilities for writing anonymous functions for assignment.
		An override of the getattr method that would check the local dictionary for an item, then proceed to checking the prototype, would be a bit better for this.
		Simply copying the dictionary from one object to another also won't permit a derived instance from picking up the addition of new attributes to its prototype.

	Slashdot Prothon - A New Prototype-based Language
		Prototype languages still hold many of the OO concepts, but objects are created directly.
		I'm not sure that prototyping -- creating objects from other existing objects by copying, essentially making inheritance a "first class" consideration -- is an analogy that's going to truly redefine the way I look at programming.
		This major prototype improvement over Python plus many other general improvements make for a clean new revolutionary breakthrough in language development.

		Prototype-based programming is a style of object-oriented programming in which classes are not present, and behaviour reuse (known as inheritance in class-based languages) is accomplished by cloning existing objects which serve as prototypes for the new ones.
		Non-English-based programming languages are computer programming languages that, unlike most well-known programming languages, do not use keywords taken from, or inspired by, the English vocabulary.
		Though Simula (1967), a language created for making simulation programs, was probably the first language to have the primary features of an object-oriented language, Smalltalk is arguably the canonical example, and the one with which much of the theory of object-oriented programming was developed.
