UML

UML是Unified Modeling Language的简称
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Modeling_Language
（可能需梯子）

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a general-purpose, developmental, modeling language in the field of software engineering that is intended to provide a standard way to visualize the design of a system.
In 1997, UML was adopted as a standard by the Object Management Group (OMG), and has been managed by this organization ever since. In 2005, UML was also published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) as an approved ISO standard. Since then the standard has been periodically revised to cover the latest revision of UML. In software engineering, most practitioners do not use UML, but instead produce informal hand drawn diagrams; these diagrams, however, often include elements from UML.

可以理解为OMG(Object Management Group)是一个致力于标准化的联合体，ISO(International Organization for Standarization, 国际标准化组织)是更大的标准化组织。UML是一种标准，被OMG adopt，然后又被ISO approve了。
软件工程师即使不画完全标准的UML图，也会在草图中体现相关元素。一些书籍（如著名的Head First Design Patterns）也会采用正式或不正式的UML帮助读者理解。

UML类图

UML图有许多种，分别适用于不同的软件开发场景。
本篇中我们主要关注UML类图。
