Unit 1: Fundamental Concepts of OO Programming
In this unit, we will explore the concepts that make OO programming different from the traditional structural design approach. Although Java supports the traditional approach, OO programming has allowed for a more robust, flexible programming design paradigm that has made it the industry standard for most new programs.
Completing this unit should take you approximately 3 hours.
Object-oriented approaches to software development are an important expansion of procedural approaches. Java explicitly supports both approaches, but you should focus on the object-oriented approach. This article compares the two approaches and explains the fundamentals of each.
Read this article about object-oriented programming. Every paradigm has its advantages and disadvantages. OO is the same.
