Object Oriented Programming in Java

Object-oriented programming helps us with data security, code reusability, and also helps us to improve code readability.
Let us see and Understand different Object-oriented concepts with code examples.
1.Abstraction
->Means showing only essential parts and hiding the implementation details.
->Only the functionality will be provided to the user,
in other words user will have the information on what the object
does instead how it does.
->Here we will be hiding the details of our class from the outside world.What happens within the class will not be known to the outside users.
abstract class Car
{
abstract void run();
}
class Baleno extends Car
{
void run()
{
System.out.println("drive car safely");
}
}
public class Main
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Car c = new Baleno();
c.run();
}
}
2.Encapsulation
->Binding variables and methods under a single entity.
->Or It is a mechanism of wrapping the data(variables) and code acting on the data(methods) together in a single unit. Data (variables) present inside class can be accessed only through methods of the current class.Therefore it is also known as data hiding,
To achieve encapsulation in java
->Declare the variables as private : if we declare variables as private then it will not be visible to the outside world.
-> If we want to access these private variables then,
Provide public setter and getter methods to modify and view the variables values.
class Student
{
private String sname;
public String getName()
{
return sname;
}
public void setName(String name)
{
sname = name;
}
}
public class Main
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Student f1 = new Student();
f1.setName("Vindhya");
System.out.println(f1.getName());
}
}
3.Inheritence
->Acquiring properties of one class to another class.
->If we consider parent class and child class ,then child class
will acquire the Properties of Parent class.
->Parent class is also known as Base class and Super class.
Child class is also known as derived class and subclass.
->In general children will acquire the properties of their parent
that is example for inheritance
class Base
{
void method1()
{
System.out.println("Parent class");
}
}
class Derived extends Base
{
void method2()
{
System.out.println("Child class");
}
}
public class Main{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Derived d = new Derived();
d.method1();
d.method2();
}
}
4.Polymorphism
->The ability of an Object to take many forms
->Performing the same task in different ways.
->here task means method.Polymorphism is a combination of two
different words poly means many and morphs means forms.
->Finally polymorphism gives the meaning of many forms
class Multiply{
static int multiply(int a,int b)
{
return a*b;
}
static double multiply(double a, double b)
{
return a*b;
}
}
public class Main{
public static void main(String args[])
{
System.out.println(Multiply.multiply(2,3));
System.out.println(Multiply.multiply(1.1,2.1));
}
}
