    Study Notes

    Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in Java

    Key Concepts

    • Classes and Objects:
      • A class is a blueprint or template that defines the properties and behavior of an object.
      • An object is an instance of a class, and it has its own set of attributes (data) and methods (functions).
    • Inheritance:
      • A mechanism that allows one class to inherit the properties and behavior of another class.
      • The child class inherits all the fields and methods of the parent class and can also add new fields and methods or override the ones inherited from the parent class.
    • Polymorphism:
      • The ability of an object to take on multiple forms.
      • Method overriding: When a subclass provides a different implementation of a method that is already defined in its superclass.
      • Method overloading: When multiple methods with the same name can be defined with different parameter lists.
    • Abstraction:
      • The concept of showing only the necessary information to the outside world while hiding the internal details.
      • Abstract classes and interfaces are used to achieve abstraction in Java.
    • Encapsulation:
      • The concept of bundling data and methods that operate on that data within a single unit (class).
      • Access modifiers (public, private, protected) are used to control access to the data and methods.

    OOP Principles in Java

    • Single Responsibility Principle (SRP): A class should have only one reason to change.
    • Open-Closed Principle: A class should be open for extension but closed for modification.
    • Liskov Substitution Principle: Subtypes should be substitutable for their base types.
    • Interface Segregation Principle: A client should not be forced to depend on interfaces it does not use.
    • Dependency Inversion Principle: High-level modules should not depend on low-level modules, but both should depend on abstractions.

    Java OOP Syntax

    • Class declaration: public class MyClass { // class body }
    • Method declaration: public void myMethod() { // method body }
    • Inheritance: public class ChildClass extends ParentClass { // class body }
    • Interface declaration: public interface MyInterface { // interface body }
    • Abstract class declaration: public abstract class MyAbstractClass { // abstract class body }

    Best Practices

    • Use meaningful and descriptive class and variable names.
    • Keep classes and methods short and focused.
    • Use access modifiers to control access to data and methods.
    • Use interfaces and abstract classes to achieve abstraction and polymorphism.
    • Follow the SOLID principles to write robust and maintainable code.

    Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in Java

    Key Concepts

    • Classes and Objects:
      • Classes define properties and behavior of objects.
      • Objects are instances of classes with their own attributes and methods.
    • Inheritance:
      • Inheritance allows a class to inherit properties and behavior from another class.
      • Child classes inherit all fields and methods from parent classes and can add new or override inherited ones.
    • Polymorphism:
      • Polymorphism allows objects to take multiple forms.
      • Method overriding: Subclasses provide different implementations of methods defined in superclasses.
      • Method overloading: Multiple methods with the same name can be defined with different parameter lists.
    • Abstraction:
      • Abstraction shows only necessary information to the outside world, hiding internal details.
      • Abstract classes and interfaces achieve abstraction in Java.
    • Encapsulation:
      • Encapsulation bundles data and methods that operate on that data within a single unit (class).
      • Access modifiers control access to data and methods.
