Benefits of OOP [Object Oriented Programming]

The main advantages are:

  • It is easy to model a real system as real objects are represented by programming objects in OOP. The objects are processed by their member data and functions. It is easy to analyze the user requirements.
  • With the help of inheritance, we can reuse the existing class to derive a new class such that the redundant code is eliminated and the use of existing class is extended. This saves time and cost of program.
  • In OOP, data can be made private to a class such that only member functions of the class can access the data. This principle of data hiding helps the programmer to build a secure program that can not be invaded by code in other part of the program.
  • With the help of polymorphism, the same function or same operator can be used for different purposes. This helps to manage software complexity easily.
  • Large problems can be reduced to smaller and more manageable problems. It is easy to partition the work in a project based on objects.
  • It is possible to have multiple instances of an object to co-exist without any interference i.e. each object has its own separate member data and function.

Object Oriented Programming

Object Oriented Programming Programming paradigm that represents the concept of "objects" that have data fields (attributes that describe the object) and associated procedures known as methods Programming methodology based on objects, instead of just functions and procedures Focuses on data rather than process As individual objects can be modified without affecting other aspects of the program, it is easier for programmers to structure and organize software programs Easier to update and change programs written in object-oriented languages Simula was the first object oriented programming language Eg: C++, Java, etc. Features of OOPS Objects Referred as instance of class Basic run-time entities in an object-oriented system a person, a place, a bank account, a table of data, etc can be an object They occupy space in memory that keeps its state  Each object contains data and code to manipulate the data  Classes Blue print or prototype  which defi

How structure elements are stored?

  The elements of a structure are always stored in contiguous memory locations. This can be illustrated as void main() {     struct student      {      int roll;      float marks;      char remarks;   };   struct student st={200,60.5,'P'};   printf("\nAddress of roll=%u",&st.roll);   printf("\nAddress of marks=%u",&st.marks);   printf("\nAddress of remarks=%u",&st.remarks);   getch(); } Output: Address of roll=65518 Address of marks=65520 Address of remarks=65524                  st.roll               st.marks                          st.remarks 200 60.5 ‘P’               65518             65520                               65524           

How containership is different than inheritance ?

               Inheritance is the mechanism of deriving properties of one class into another. While containership is mechanism in which one class contain objects of other classes as its member.                     class alpha{_ _ _ _ _ };                     class beta{_ _ _ _ _ };                      class gamma                      {                         alpha a;                         beta b;                       _ _ _ _ _ };            All objects of gamma class will contain the objects a and b, this kind of relationship is called containership or nesting.
