OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING

OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING:
C++: Designed by Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Labs in the early 1980s, C++ is an extension of the C programming language that introduced support for object-oriented programming features such as classes, inheritance, and polymorphism. C++ became widely popular due to its compatibility with C and its powerful OOP capabilities.

Java: Developed by James Gosling and his team at Sun Microsystems in the mid-1990s, Java was designed to be a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language. Java's "Write Once, Run Anywhere" mantra, along with its simplicity, security features, and robust OOP

Object-oriented methodology (OOM) is an approach to software design and development that revolves around the concept of objects. In OOM, software systems are modeled as collections of interacting objects, each of which represents an entity within the system and encapsulates both data and behavior.

OOP Vs Procedural Based Programming Language:

AspectObject-Oriented Programming (OOP)Procedural Programming
Core ConceptObjects representing data and behaviorProcedures or functions
Data and BehaviorEncapsulated together within objectsSeparated, with data typically passed to functions
ReusabilityEmphasizes code reusability through inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulationCode reusability through functions
ModularityEmphasizes modularity through classes and objectsModularized through functions and procedures
State ManagementState encapsulated within objectsState often managed by passing parameters
AbstractionAbstraction achieved through classes and objectsLess emphasis on abstraction, focuses more on procedures
EncapsulationObjects encapsulate data and behaviorData and procedures are separate
Inheritance vs. Procedural FlowHierarchical relationships through inheritanceLinear execution flow from one procedure to another
Examples of LanguagesJava, C++, Python, C#C, Fortran, BASIC, Pascal, COBOL

C++ Variable

C++ Variables: Named Storage Units In C++, variables serve as named boxes in memory that hold values during program execution. Each variable has three key aspects: 1. Data Type: Defines the kind of data a variable can store: numbers (integers, floating-point, etc.), characters, boolean values (true/false), or custom data structures (arrays, objects). Common data types: int : Whole numbers (e.g., -10, 0, 23) float : Decimal numbers (e.g., 3.14, -2.5) double : More precise decimal numbers char : Single characters (e.g., 'a', 'Z', '&') bool : True or false values 2. Name: A user-defined label for the variable, chosen according to naming conventions: Start with a letter or underscore. Contain letters, digits, and underscores. Case-sensitive (e.g.,  age  and  Age  are different). Not a reserved keyword (e.g.,  int ,  for ). Choose meaningful names that reflect the variable's purpose. 3. Value: The actual data stored in the variable, which must match its data...

C++ Functions

C++ Functions A function is a block of code that performs a specific task. Suppose we need to create a program to create a circle and color it. We can create two functions to solve this problem: a function to draw the circle a function to color the circle Dividing a complex problem into smaller chunks makes our program easy to understand and reusable. There are two types of function: Standard Library Functions:  Predefined in C++ User-defined Function:  Created by users In this tutorial, we will focus mostly on user-defined functions. C++ User-defined Function C++ allows the programmer to define their own function. A user-defined function groups code to perform a specific task and that group of code is given a name (identifier). When the function is invoked from any part of the program, it all executes the codes defined in the body of the function. C++ Function Declaration The syntax to declare a function is: returnType functionName (parameter1, parameter2,...) { // func...

C++ Type Conversion

In C++, type conversion, also known as type casting, allows you to change the data type of a variable. This can be useful for various purposes, but it's important to understand the potential risks and use it cautiously. Here's a breakdown of C++ type conversion: Types of Type Conversion: Implicit Conversion: Done automatically by the compiler when necessary. Common cases: Promoting smaller integer types to larger ones (e.g.,  int  to  float ). Converting characters to integer equivalents (e.g.,  'A'  to  65 ). Assigning expressions with mixed types to a variable of higher precedence (e.g.,  int result = age + 3.14; ). Explicit Conversion: Done manually by the programmer using different methods: C-style casting:   (data_type) expression;  (e.g.,  int age = (int) 3.14; ). Functional notation:   static_cast<data_type>(expression);  (e.g.,  int age = static_cast<int>(3.14); ). Type conversion operators: dynamic_cas...
