C++ OOP

This lesson is part of C++ · All levels

Summary

This lesson introduces Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), a paradigm that models programs as a collection of interacting objects. C++ supports the main pillars of OOP: encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction. With OOP, large systems become more structured, modular, and easy to develop together as a team.

Key points

OOP groups data and behavior into classes and objects.
Encapsulation hides the inner details behind the public interface.
Inheritance allows a descendant class to inherit the parent class.
Polymorphism makes a single name for different behaviors in different contexts.
