Elementary Concepts of Objects and Classes: Computer Applications-Lorven Public School, Chandapura

This document discusses classes and objects in object-oriented programming. A class defines common properties and behaviors of objects, and acts as a blueprint to create many objects. Objects are instances of a class and have their own unique properties but share the same behaviors defined in the class. The document provides an example Animal class with objects like dog, cat, and cow as instances. It also demonstrates how to declare classes with data members and member functions, and how to define and initialize objects from classes using the new operator.

CLASSES

CLASSES
Hence class is prototype for similar type of objects.
Objects are real world entities that have similar behaviour and different properties.
Example Animal class and its objects may be dog, cat, cow etc.
Syntax for creating class and objects is as below.
Access specifier Class class-name
{
Access specifier
// Data members
Access specifier
//Member Functions
} object1, object2,so..on;

CLASSES Continued..

 Now lets see what does a body of class contain,


 It contains data members and member functions.
 We know that object is a real world entity. It has its own behaviour and
characteristics.
 In software class objects behaviour and characteristics are taken as its data
members and member functions.
 If car is a class, its colour, model, type of car can be its characteristics and
accelerate() and decelerate() can be its function.

CREATING AN OBJECT
 Object declaration
 Syntax: Class-name object name;

 Object creation
 Syntax: object name= new class-name();
 “new” operator is used to allocate memory to the object;

 Example: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/new-operator-java/

EXAMPLE
 Class Rectangle
{
//data members
float length, breadth;

//member functions
void input();
void calculate();
void display();
}

CREATING OBJECTS
 Rectangle robj1= new Rectangle();
 Rectangle robj2=new rectangle();

robj1 robj2
Length Length
breadth breadth

Input(); Input();
Calculate(); Calculate();
Display() display();

IMPORTANT POINTS TO
REMEMBER
 Class creates many objects and interacts by invoking objects.
 Objects always define the following;
 State:
 Its an attribute
 reflects property of an object.
 Behaviour:
 It’s a method
 Reflects the relation of an object with other object.
 Identity:
 It gives an unique identity
 Enables object to interact with other objects.
