No, GP is not object-oriented at all. It has some minimal functional-programming features
(anonymous functions and closure).

You know, there is a GP manual you could read...

Does not work.

? c(y)={c.y=y;};
? c(5);
? c.y
%3 = 5
? d.y
%4 = 5
? Pi.y
%5 = 5
? 123.y
%6 = 5

(this defines the function _.y to be constant to 5).

Cheers,
