===== Property ===== | ===== Property ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== What is a property? ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | A property serves to define a relationship of a specific kind between two classes. A property | ||
+ | plays a role analogous to a grammatical verb, in that it must be defined with reference to | ||
+ | both its //domain// and //range//, which are analogous to the subject and object in grammar. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Version ==== | ||
