Java OOPs Notes Day6

The document provides a step-by-step overview of Java Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts, including classes, objects, constructors, the 'this' keyword, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction. Each concept is illustrated with examples to clarify their usage and importance in Java programming. A summary table at the end encapsulates the key definitions and principles of OOP.

Java OOPs - Step-by-Step Notes

Step 1: Class & Object

Class: A class is a blueprint/template for creating objects.

Object: An object is an instance of a class holding actual data.

Example:

class Car {

String color;

void drive() {

System.out.println("Car is driving");

Car myCar = new Car();

myCar.color = "Red";

myCar.drive();

Step 2: Constructor

Constructor: A special method that gets called when an object is created.

- Same name as class

- No return type

Example:

class Student {

String name;

Student(String n) {

name = n;

Step 3: this Keyword

Used to refer to the current object.

Example:

class Person {

String name;

Person(String name) {

this.name = name;

Step 4: Encapsulation

Wrapping data and code together using private fields and public methods.

Example:

class Account {

private int balance;

public void setBalance(int b) { balance = b; }

public int getBalance() { return balance; }

Step 5: Inheritance

One class inherits properties from another.

Example:

class Animal {

void sound() { System.out.println("Animal Sound"); }

class Dog extends Animal {

void bark() { System.out.println("Bark"); }

}

Step 6: Polymorphism

Compile-time (Overloading) and Run-time (Overriding) polymorphism.

Overloading:

int add(int a, int b) {...}

double add(double a, double b) {...}

Overriding:

class Animal { void sound() {...} }

class Cat extends Animal { void sound() {...} }

Step 7: Abstraction

Hiding implementation and showing only essentials.

Achieved via Abstract Class or Interface.

Example:

abstract class Shape {

abstract void draw();

class Circle extends Shape {

void draw() { System.out.println("Drawing Circle"); }

Summary Table

Class: Blueprint

Object: Instance of a class

Constructor: Initializes object

this: Refers to current object

Encapsulation: Data hiding

Inheritance: Reusability

Polymorphism: One method, multiple forms

Abstraction: Hide complexity
