Question 2

Writing computer programs as sets of operations executed in sequence

Answer 2

Procedural Programming

Question 3

Named computer memory locations that hold values

Answer 3

Variables

Question 4

Answer 10

Encapsulation
Inheritance
Polymorphism

Question 11

Answer 14

Object

Question 15

What creating an instance is called

Answer 15

Instantiation

Question 16

Answer 16

State

Question 17

Besides defining properties, classes can also define what?

Answer 17

Methods their objects can use

Question 18

A self-contained block of program code that carries out some action

Answer 18

Method

Question 19

The enclosure of data and methods within an object. It allows the treatment of all of an object’s methods and data as a single entity

It also refers to the concealment of an object’s data and methods from outside sources. It lets you hide specific object attributes and methods from outside sources

Answer 19

Encapsulation

Concealing data is sometimes called as:

Answer 20

Information hiding

Question 21

Concealing how methods work is referred to as:

Answer 21

Implementation hiding

Question 22

Means “many forms”

Answer 23

Polymorphism
