You would program in same way except that you write objects
and methods instead of structures and functions/procedures.
Method is function that has first parameter structure/object.
Difference is that you could write polymorphic objects,
those with virtual functions (runtime dispatch on type), but than again
perhaps it is not necessary in your case.
All in all program logic is same...
