Python Programming

Welcome back!

In this module, we will discuss a completely different paradigm to programming, called object-oriented programming (OOP).

So please watch my video below as I tell you why we need OOP!

Summary:

• OOP is elegant, readable and intuitive, which makes it easier to maintain and understand your code.
• In OOP, everything is an object (to a certain extent)
• Classes are “blueprints” for object instances.
• Objects have attributes and properties.
• Objects interact with each other.
• Objects can be part of another object (composition/aggregation).
• Inheritance: Objects can be a special type of a more general object.
• Polymorphism: You can use the same method on different types of objects (e.g. any Character can attack()).
