Object-Oriented Paradigm
Download as PPTX, PDF2 likes1,732 views
Object-oriented programming is a logical approach to software engineering that models real-world objects. It allows objects to interact by sending messages. Each object has an identity, state defined by member variables, and behavior defined by methods. The paradigm was developed in the 1960s and resulted in Simula and Smalltalk in the 1970s. Object-oriented programming focuses on data rather than code and uses objects containing both state and behavior as the unit of abstraction.

Object-Oriented Paradigm
- 2. WHAT IS A PROGRAMMING PARADIGM? THIS IS THE LOGICAL APPROACH USED IN THE IMPLEMENTATING OF SOFTWARE ENGINEERING WHICH MAINLY DESCRIBES HOW IT IS IMPLEMENTED.
- 3. WHAT IS OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING PARADIGM? THE OBJECT ORIENTED PARADIGM ALLOWS FOR INTERACTION BETWEEN OBJECTS I.E. THE SENDING OF MESSAGES TO OBJECTS, EACH OF THESE OBJECTS IS IDENTIFIED BY AN IDENTITY. THE STATE DESCRIBES THE OBJECT IN TERMS OF MEMBER VARIABLES AND BEHAVIOUR DESCRIBES THE OBJECT IN TERMS OF THE METHODS THAT CAN BE USED.
- 4. BRIEF HISTORY OBJECT ORIENTED PARADIGM WAS DEVELOPED IN 1960 BY RESEARCHERS AT THE NORWEGIAN COMPUTING CENTER AS A RESULT OF SIMULA (SIMULATION OF REAL SYSTEMS). THE FIRST PURE OOPL: SMALLTALK WAS DEVELOPED IN 1970 BY ALAN KAY AND HIS RESEARCHERS AT XEROX PARK. IN ACCORDANCE WITH KAY’S DEVELOPMENT OF THE FIRST OOPL BJARNE STROUSTRUP EXTENDED THE C PROGRAM, C++ THAT USED THE OBJECT-ORIENTED CONCEPT.
- 5. OBJECT ORIENTED PARADIGM OBJECT ORIENTED PARADIGM CHANGES THE MAIN FOCUS FROM CODE TO DATA. IT MODELS REAL-WORLD OBJECTS. THE UNIT OF ABSTRACTION IS THE OBJECT WHICH CONTAINS BOTH STATES I.E. INFORMATION (VALUES) AND BEHAVIOUR (METHODS AND PROCEDURES). MOST OF THE OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMS ARE SIMILAR THE CHANGE IS IN HOW WE THINK ABOUT PROBLEM SOLVING INSTEAD OF THE STYLE OF PROGRAMMING .
