Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
A programming paradigm that organizes software design around data or objects, focusing on encapsulation over functions and logic.
Objects
Objects
Data fields with unique characteristics and behaviors representing real-world entities. In essence, they are the fundamental units of OOP.
Declarative Programming
Declarative Programming
A programming style where you specify what you want to achieve, not how to do it.

Study Notes
Programming Models and Concepts
- Object-oriented programming (OOP) organizes software design around data or objects, emphasizing encapsulation over functions and logic.
- Objects are defined as data fields with unique attributes and behaviors, representing real-world entities.
- Declarative programming involves stating what the task or desired outcome is, without specifying how to achieve it.
Applications and Benefits of Object-Oriented Programming
- OOP benefits various types of programs, particularly those requiring modularity, reusability, and maintainability.
- Functional programming emphasizes function and logic modeling, contrasting with the object-centric focus of OOP.
- The first step in OOP is the identification of objects that will be manipulated in the program.
Programming Methods and Languages
- Logic programming, which is primarily based on formal logic, utilizes languages such as Prolog.
- Well-defined interfaces in OOP are known as APIs (Application Programming Interfaces).
- Benefits of OOP include enhanced code reusability, scalability, and easier maintenance.
- Functional and concurrent programming languages like Erlang and Scala are designed to facilitate these programming paradigms.
- Compiled languages in OOP may be more complex to write and take longer to compile than interpreted languages.
Specialized Programming Contexts
- OOP is advantageous for building telecommunications and fault-tolerant systems due to its scalable design.
- Each distinct sequence of logic in OOP is called a method or function.
- Logic programming focuses on tasks that can benefit from rule-based logical queries.
Object Manipulation and Relationships
- The exercise of collecting objects and identifying their relationships is known as object modeling or analysis.
- Notably, primitive data types are NOT considered foundational building blocks of OOP.
Principles of Object-Oriented Programming
- Encapsulation in OOP refers to bundling data and methods that operate on the data within a single unit or object.
- Abstraction simplifies complex reality by modeling classes based on essential properties while hiding unnecessary details.
- Inheritance allows classes to inherit properties and methods from parent classes, promoting code reusability.
- Polymorphism lets objects be treated as instances of their parent class, allowing for methods to operate differently based on the object type.
Programming Languages and Critiques
- Ruby is often regarded as a pure object-oriented programming language.
- Java is primarily object-oriented but also integrates some procedural programming aspects.
- Python incorporates object-oriented principles but is not classified as a pure OOP language.
- Benefits of OOP include increased program modularization and the ability to manage larger codebases effectively.
- Criticisms of the OOP model often cite its complexity and potential for overhead in design and performance.
