Study Notes

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

OOP focuses on objects that encapsulate data and provide interfaces through functions.
Objects can represent real-world entities; for example, insects exhibit movement but in different ways.
Ants crawl to move, while grasshoppers jump.

Unified Modeling Language (UML)

UML stands for Unified Modeling Language, providing standards for graphically representing object-oriented systems.
It includes a variety of diagram types to aid in visualization and design.

UML Class Diagram

Class diagrams consist of three primary sections: name, attributes, and operations (methods).
Example of a class representation: A Rectangle Class can be illustrated with its relevant attributes and methods.

UML Access Specification Notation

Access specifiers indicate the visibility of members in a UML class.
A minus sign (-) denotes private members, while a plus sign (+) indicates public members.

UML Data Type Notation

Member variable data types are indicated by a colon followed by the data type after the variable name.

Procedural Programming vs. Object-Oriented Programming

Traditional procedural programming emphasizes functions and procedures over data encapsulation.
OOP represents a shift towards sending data to objects rather than just using functions, enhancing modularity and reusability.
