Object-Oriented Programming Concepts

What is the primary focus of Object Oriented Programming (OOP)?

What does the acronym DRY stand for in the context of OOP?

Which statement best describes a class in OOP?

In the context of OOP, which of the following is an example of an object?

What is meant by saying that OOP promotes shorter development time?

How is a system defined in the context of OOP?

Which example best illustrates the relationship between a class and its objects?

Which of the following is a benefit of using OOP in programming?

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

Organizes software design around data (objects) instead of functions and logic.
Faster and easier to execute compared to traditional programming models.
Provides a clear structure for programs, improving code readability and maintainability.
Promotes the DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) principle, leading to more concise and efficient code.
Enables reusable applications with less code and shorter development time.

Classes and Objects

Classes: Templates for creating objects.
Objects: Instances of a class.
Example:
- Class: Fruit
- Objects: Apple, Orange, Banana
Classes represent general concepts, while objects are specific instances of those concepts.

Systems and OOP

OOP can be considered a system because it consists of interconnected parts working together.
A system is defined as a set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network.
A system is also defined as a set of principles or procedures according to which something is done; an organized framework or method.

Example of a System: Educational System

An Educational System is composed of different departments (e.g., Registrar, Admissions, Programs, Finance, Non-Administrative) working together to achieve a specific educational goal.
Combining these departments creates a clear and distinct purpose for the entire system.

This quiz covers the fundamental concepts of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), focusing on classes and objects. You'll learn how OOP organizes software design and promotes code efficiency and maintainability. Test your understanding of how OOP serves as a systematic approach in programming.
