- Static methods
- Class constants
- Namespaces
- Autoloading (RIP require statements)
- __toString & the other magic functions
- Treat that $object[1] like an array (ArrayAccess)
- Throwing and catching a baseball Exceptions
- Traits! Horizontal code re-use
- Composition Versus Inheritance: Dressing your classes for success
Finally, you're going to start to see some serious pay-off from these new, crazy OO skills you've got. In this tutorial, OO is here to impress us. Dig in.
