Procedure/ Structure Oriented
Programming
 Conventional programming, using high level languages such as
COBOL, FORTRAN and C, is commonly known as procedure-
oriented programming (POP) .
 In the procedure-oriented approach, the problem is viewed as a
sequence of things to be done such as reading, calculating and
printing. A number of functions are written to accomplish these
tasks .
 The primary focus is on functions :

Object Oriented Programming
 Emphasis is on data rather than procedure.
 Programs are divided into what are known as objects.
 Data is hidden and cannot be accessed by external functions.
 Objects may communicate with each other through functions.
 New data and functions can be easily added whenever necessary.
 Follows bottom-up approach in program design

Basic Concepts of OOP
Objects :
 Objects are the basic runtime entities in an object oriented
system. They may represent a person, a place, a bank account, a
table of data or any item that the program has to handle

 Class
 Object contains data, and code to manipulate that data. The
entire set of data and code of an object can be made a user-
defined data type with the help of a class

 A Class is a 3-Compartment Box encapsulating Data and
Functions
1. Classname (or identifier): identifies the class.
2. Data Members or Variables (or attributes, states, fields):
contains the static attributes of the class.
(or methods, behaviors, operations):
3. Member Functions
contains the dynamic operations of the class.

Data Encapsulation
 The wrapping up of data and functions into a single unit is
known as encapsulation.
 The data is not accessible to the outside world, only those
function which are wrapped in the can access it.
 These functions provide the interface between the object’s data
and the program.
 This insulation of the data from direct access by the program is
called data hiding or information hiding.
Data Abstraction
 Abstraction refers to the act of representing essential features
without including the background details or explanations.
 Since classes use the concept of data abstraction, they are known
as Abstract Data Types (ADT)

Inheritance
 Inheritance is the process by which objects of one class acquire
the properties of objects of another class.
 In OOP, the concept of inheritance provides the idea of
reusability. This means we can add additional features to an
existing class without modifying it.
Types of Inheritance:

Polymorphism
 Polymorphism, a Greek term means to ability to take more than
one form.
 An operation may exhibits different behaviors in different
instances. The behavior depends upon the type of data used in
the operation.
 For example consider the operation of addition for two numbers;
the operation will generate a sum. If the operands are string then
the operation would produce a third string by concatenation.
 The process of making an operator to exhibit different behavior
in different instances is known operator overloading

Benefits of OOP
OOP offers several benefits to both the program designer & the user
 Through inheritance, we can eliminate redundant code and extend
the use of existing class
 We can build programs from the standard working module the
communicate with one another, rather than having to start writing
code from scratch. This leads to saving of development time &
higher productivity.
 The principle of data hiding helps the programmer to build &
secure programs that cannot be invaded by code in other parts of
the program.
 It is possible to map objects in the problem domain to those in the
program
 It is easy to partition the work in a project based on objects
 The data-centered design approach enables us to capture more
details of a model in implementable form.
.

Benefits of OOP
 Object-oriented systems can be easily upgraded from small to large
systems.
 Message passing techniques for communication between objects
makes the interface descriptions with external systems much simpler.
 Software complexity can be easily managed .
While it is possible to incorporate all these features in an object-
oriented system, their importance depends on the type of the
project and the preference of the programmer. There are a number of
issues that need to be tackled to reap some of the benefits stated
above. For instance, object libraries must be available for reuse. The
technology is still developing and current
products may be superseded quickly. Strict controls and
protocols need to be developed if reuse is not to be
compromised.

Applications of OOP
Real-business systems are often much more complex and contain
many more objects with complicated attributes and methods.
OOP is useful in these types of applications because it can
simplify a complex problem. The promising areas for application
of OOP include:
 Real-time systems
 Simulation and modeling
 Object-oriented databases
 Hypertext, hypermedia and expertext
 Al and expert systems
 Neural networks and parallel programming
 Decision support and office automation systems
 CIM/CAM/CAD systems
