> Data dominates. If you've chosen the right data structures and organized things well, the algorithms will almost always be self-evident. Data structures, not algorithms, are central to programming.

I disagree that this is generally true.

For instance tye once made a good point in criticizing Moose objects for centering too much around the attributes they have.

Objects and classes should be primarily defined by their methods (what they do) and not their attributes (aka data they have)
