Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of abstraction in managing complex systems?

To hide the details of the system and only show the essential components, making it easier to use.

What is encapsulation in programming?

Binding and wrapping up the methods and the data together to keep them safe from being misused or mishandled.

Explain the concept of inheritance in programming with an example.

Inheritance is the process by which an object acquires the properties of another object. For example, an Alsatian inherits the characteristics of a dog, which itself inherits the characteristics of a mammal.

What is polymorphism in programming?

<p>It means that the same operation or function may behave differently on different classes.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Why is Java called an Internet language?

<p>Because Java programs are translated to bytecode, which can run on a wide range of machines with only a Java interpreter (JVM) and libraries, making them portable and distributable over the internet.</p> Signup and view all the answers

What is the advantage of bytecode in Java programming?

Study Notes

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

  • OOP simulates the real world in software, where real-world objects are represented as software objects.
  • The main principles of OOP are:
    • Encapsulation: Binding and wrapping up methods and data together to keep them safe from misuse.
    • Abstraction: Hiding unnecessary details and representing only essential features.
    • Inheritance: Acquiring properties from another object (e.g., Alsatian inherits characteristics from dog, dog from mammal, and mammal from animal).
    • Polymorphism: Same operation functions differently on different classes (e.g., "move" behaves differently on Microsoft Windows and a chess game).

Java and JVM

  • Java is called an Internet language because Java programs are translated to bytecode, which is not affected by the machine environment, making them portable.
  • JVM (Java Virtual Machine) is an interpreter that translates bytecode to machine language and runs it.
  • JVM, along with Java Application Interface libraries, acts as a platform for Java programs to run on a machine.

Characteristics of Object-Oriented Programming

  • Abstraction: Hiding unnecessary details and representing only essential features.
  • Encapsulation: Protects objects from misuse by binding and wrapping up methods and data together.
  • Inheritance: Acquiring properties from another object.
  • Polymorphism: Same operation functions differently on different classes.

Java Features

  • Purely object-oriented programming language
  • Can be used to build distributed applications
  • Compiled and interpreted
  • Portable (can be carried to different machines in the form of bytecode)
  • Handles unexpected faults and errors
  • Performs type checking on the user machine
  • Allows for multitasking
