Study Notes
Software Engineering
- The primary focus of Software Engineering is to design, develop, test, and maintain software systems that are reliable, efficient, and meet the user's requirements.
- The main components of Software Engineering are Software Quality Assurance (SQA), Software Project Management, and Software Development Process.
Objectives of Software Engineering
- The primary goal of Software Engineering is to develop software systems that are correct, reliable, efficient, and maintainable.
- Software Engineering is concerned with the development of software systems that meet the user's requirements.
- One of the objectives of Software Engineering is to significantly improve Product Quality, Cost, and Time (PQCT).
Software Development Process
- The Software Development Process involves designing, developing, testing, and maintaining software systems.
Software Quality Assurance (SQA)
- Software Quality Assurance (SQA) ensures that the software system meets the user's requirements and is reliable, efficient, and maintainable.
Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
- The primary focus of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is to develop software systems that are modular, reusable, and easy to maintain.
- A class abstraction in OOP involves defining a class that represents a concept or object with common attributes and methods.
- The concept of Inheritance in OOP describes the idea of creating a new class based on an existing class, inheriting its attributes and methods.
- The concept of Polymorphism in OOP involves the idea of having objects with a mix of some inherited methods and some unique to their own class.
- Encapsulation in OOP involves bundling data and methods that operate on that data within a single unit, a class.
- The purpose of encapsulation in OOP is to hide the implementation details of an object from the outside world and show only the necessary information.
Access Specifiers in C# Programming
- In C# programming, private class members are accessible only within the same class.
- The underscore symbol ('_') in Python is used for encapsulation, making the variable or method private.
- The default visibility of data members and member functions in a class in C# programming is private.
- Public members of a class in a program are accessible from anywhere in the program.
- The main purpose of access specifiers in C# programming is to control access to members of a class.
- Protected members of a class in C# programming are accessible within the same class and its derived classes.
- An object's variable is considered private in object-oriented programming if it is not accessible from outside the object.
- Encapsulation in object-oriented programming refers to the concept of bundling data and methods that operate on that data within a single unit, a class.
- The 'Protected Internal' access specifier in C# programming allows access to members of a class from within the same class, derived classes, and classes in the same assembly.
