DCIT50 (LEC) Flashcards
what is the programming model used in functional programming?
declarative
what programming model do object-oriented programming uses?
imperative programming model
in functional programs, what are the main elements of the code?
variables and functions
in object-oriented programs, what are the key elements?
objects and methods
it is a programming paradigm that provides a means of structuring programs so that properties and behaviors are bundled into individual objects
object-oriented programming
it models real-world entities as software objects that have some data associated with them and can perform certain operations
object-oriented programming
it is a group of objects that share common properties and behavior
class
it is a blueprint or template from which objects are created
class
it is an instance of a class
object
they are basically an encapsulation of data variables and methods acting on that data into a single entity
objects
these are variables of a class that are shared between all of its instances
class attributes
they are owned by one specific instance of the class and are not shared between instances
instance attributes
what are the qualities of object-oriented model?
classes and objects
encapsulation
abstraction
inheritance
polymorphism
it is where the blueprint for an object is defined
class
it defines the methods, attributes, and other aspects of the object
class
they are created from classes
objects
it means to enclose all the important information in a capsule and expose all the other selected information to the outside world
encapsulation
it is what a developer needs to implement in the software or a product for a better user experience
abstraction
it is used to hide all the complexities and displays only essential information to the outside world
abstraction
it means inheriting someone’s characteristics
inheritance
they are one of the most essential and important characteristics of oops
combining and inheriting the objects and their properties
it means to have the same name of a method performing different tasks
polymorphism
it has the ability to display the message in more than one form
polymorphism
example of this is that a person can possess different characteristics at the same time
polymorphism
it is one of the fundamental concepts in object-oriented programming (OOP)
encapsulation
it describes the idea of wrapping data and the methods that work on data within one unit
encapsulation
it puts restrictions on accessing variables and methods directly and can prevent the accidental modification of data
encapsulation
these can only be changed by an object’s method
private variables
they are intended to be restricted within the class or object that defines them
private variables
it encapsulates data that prevents access directly from the class
private variables
it is essential for maintaining data integrity and ensures that the program operates as expected
data validation
where do the process of ensuring that inputs and how the class is modified or used set?
in data validation
it allows us to define a class that inherits all the methods and properties from another class
inheritance
it is also known as base class
parent class
parent class is also known as?
base class
it is a class that is extended or inherited by one or more other classes
parent class
it inherits attributes and methods from the parent class
child class
it can add its own attributes and methods in addition to those inherited from the parent class
child class
it allows child classes to properly initialized attributes or methods that are define in the parent class
super ()
