Edit Question
Title
Body
Apparently, Alexander Stepanov has stated the following in an interview : “I find OOP [object-oriented programming] technically unsound. It attempts to decompose the world in terms of interfaces that vary on a single type. To deal with the real problems you need multisorted algebras - families of interfaces that span multiple types. ” [Emphasis added.] Ignoring his statement regarding OOP for a moment, what are "multisorted algebras", beyond his terse definition, and can you give a practical example of how they are used (in the language of your choice)?
