Object-Oriented Programming and Java
Object-Oriented Programming is a paradigm based on the concept of taking real world objects and representing them in coding. OOP is used widely among various programming languages. The concept of this programming style uses classes and objects. These objects can be broken down using various attributes like functions – methods or attributes – properties. OOP consists of abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism. Combined these make up the four pillars of object-oriented programming. Abstraction: Only showing the user the necessary details for accessing an object Encapsulation: Restricts the access of properties or methods of an object, by hiding data Inheritance: Allows the reusability of code of an existing class Polymorphism: Helps the user determine what function to run while it is running Here are some examples of Object – Oriented Programming languages that have the concept of classes: · C++ · ...
