C++ Developer - Basics of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

The video tutorial introduces programming paradigms, focusing on procedural and object-oriented programming (OOP). It explains how procedural programming uses functions to solve problems, while OOP emphasizes objects that encapsulate data and behaviors. The three main principles of OOP—encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism—are introduced, with a focus on understanding encapsulation first. The tutorial concludes with a review and questions to reinforce learning.

What is the main focus of procedural programming?

• Objects and their interactions

• Functions that perform specific tasks

• Data encapsulation

• Inheritance and polymorphism

In object-oriented programming, what does an object represent?

• A programming paradigm

• An entity with both data and behaviors

• A piece of data without behavior

• A function that performs a task

Which of the following is a feature of encapsulation in OOP?

• Separating data from behaviors

• Combining data and behaviors within an object

• Focusing solely on functions

• Using only procedural programming

What are the three primary principles of object-oriented programming?

• Classes, methods, and attributes

• Data, behaviors, and objects

• Functions, procedures, and tasks

• Encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism

Why is it important to understand encapsulation before inheritance in OOP?

• Inheritance relies on the concept of encapsulation

• Encapsulation is not a principle of OOP

• Encapsulation is more complex than inheritance

• Polymorphism is unrelated to inheritance
