Object Oriented Programming Paradigm

• In object oriented programming approach there is a collection of objects. Each object consists of corresponding data structures and the required operations (procedures). This is basically the bottom up problem solving approach.

• The object oriented programming approach is developed in order to remove some of the flaws of procedural programming.

• OOP has a complete focus on data and not on the procedures. In OOP, the data can be protected from accidental modification.

• In OOP the most important entity called object is created.

• Each object consists of data attributes and the methods. The methods or functions operate on data attributes.
