Java OOPs Concepts-4

Java Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) utilizes objects as the primary means to implement code, aiming to model real-world entities through concepts like inheritance, encapsulation, and polymorphism. A class serves as a blueprint for creating objects, while the four pillars of OOP—abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism—enhance code organization and efficiency. Overall, OOP in Java facilitates the development of complex applications that are easier to manage and modify.

Java OOP (Object Oriented Programming) Concepts

Last Updated: 04 Jan, 2025

Object-Oriented Programming or Java OOPs concept refers to programming languages that use
objects in programming. They use objects as a primary source to implement what is to happen in the
code. Objects are seen by the viewer or user, performing tasks you assign.

Object-oriented programming aims to implement real-world entities like inheritance, hiding,


polymorphism, etc., in programming. The main aim of OOPs is to bind together the data and the
functions that operate on them so that no other part of the code can access this data except that
function.

Java Class

A Class is a user-defined blueprint or prototype from which objects are created. It represents the set
of properties or methods that are common to all objects of one type.

Java Object

An Object is a basic unit of Object-Oriented Programming that represents real-life entities. A typical
Java program creates many objects, which as you know, interact by invoking methods.

4 Pillars of Java OOPs Concepts

1. Abstraction
Data Abstraction is the property by virtue of which only the essential details are displayed to the
user. The trivial or non-essential units are not displayed.

2. Encapsulation
It is defined as the wrapping up of data under a single unit. It is the mechanism that binds together
the code and the data it manipulates.

3. Inheritance
Inheritance is an important pillar of OOP. It allows one class to inherit the features (fields and
methods) of another class.

4. Polymorphism
It refers to the ability of object-oriented programming languages to differentiate between entities with
the same name efficiently.

Conclusion

The Object Oriented Programming (OOPs) concept in Java is a powerful way to organize and write
code. By using OOPs concepts like inheritance, encapsulation, and polymorphism, programmers
can build complex applications more efficiently, making the code easier to manage, understand, and
modify.
