What is Object Orientation?
What is Object Orientation?
Object Orientation is a programming technique that represents problems in terms of objects and their interactions, mirroring how things operate in real life.

- The C++ Programming Language by Bjarne Stroustrup
What is Object Orientation (OO)?
- A technique to visualize programming problems like real-life objects.
- Objects interact and perform operations.
- Examples: A person, a house, a tree, a car. (in diagrams)
- Objects interact to perform operations in diagrams. e.g., Ali driving a car
- Other example: A school with student, teacher, books, pen, etc
What is a Model?
- An abstraction of a real or conceptual thing.
- Models help understand a part of reality.
Object-Oriented Models (OO Models)
- Used to understand problems before writing code
- Show interacting objects in real life scenarios (diagrams).
What is an Object?
- Tangible or conceptual entities.
- Ali, Car, House, Tree are examples of tangible objects.
- Have a state (attributes) and behavior (operations)
- e.g., Ali (name, age) - walks, eats
- e.g., Car (color, model) - accelerate, start car, change gear
- Unique identifiers.
Tangible and Intangible Objects
- Tangible: Ali, School, House, Car.
- Intangible/Conceptual: Time, Date.
Object-Oriented Advantages
- Easy to understand and develop object-oriented models.
- Easy implementation with OO languages (e.g., C++).
- Mapping problems to real-life structures.
