[edit ]In its current form, this article about abstraction does not seem to describe abstraction but something similar to the single responsibility principle, Don't repeat yourself, . Another article on abstraction provides a much more accurate description, which applies to the whole field of computer science, including computer programming.
For a more detailed explanation with examples and brief definitions there is a [question in stack exchange] motivated by this article (among other reasons). trylks (talk) 00:16, 8 October 2015 (UTC) [reply ]
- Agreed. I vote we delete this article and redirect to abstraction Rkedge (talk) 15:59, 28 August 2017 (UTC) [reply ]
- I think there is an abstraction principle, but it's not peculiar to computer science or software. I read that the abstraction principle is about simplifying problems by ignoring detail that isn’t essential, whether in logic, math, or software. So, the title and content of this article is too software oriented. Stevebroshar (talk) 03:05, 26 August 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
