Eiffel is a pure object-oriented programming language growing both in education and industry. It is a high-level language, and is particularly suitable as a starting point for those who wish to learn the fundamentals of object orientation. Eiffel is, however, more than a teaching language: it incorporates an approach to software development based on ideas of reusability, extendibility and reliability. Uniquely among object-oriented languages, it was created with mechanisms for making formal assertions about software components, based on the "design by contract" philosophy. This work provides an introduction to object orientation and a practical introduction to nearly all the features provided by the Eiffel programming language. It should be suitable for those with some experience of programming who wish to learn about object oriented programming. It should also appeal to those who already have some knowledge of object orientation, and wish to find out about the Eiffel language.
