Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm based on the concept of “objects”. In Java, OOP is fundamental to the language design and structure.

Key Concepts

• Classes and Objects: The basic units of OOP
• Encapsulation: Hiding implementation details
• Inheritance: Creating new classes from existing ones
• Polymorphism: Allowing objects to take multiple forms

Why OOP?

OOP allows for:

• Code reusability
• Modularity
• Easier maintenance
• Organized code structure
