What is an Object in Object Oriented Programming | OOP Fundamentals

We'll be using Java in making Android apps and games in my other YouTube videos, and since it's an OOP language, it's super important to learn OOP fundamentals first to be able to work with Java, Kotlin, C++, Python, C#, or any other OOP based languages.

Object Orientated Programming is intended to bring programming closer to thinking about the real world. An object represents an entity in the real world that can be distinctly identified. For example, a student, a desk, a circle, and even a bank account can all be viewed as objects.

Just as procedures are used to build procedural programs like in C, objects are used to build object-oriented programs. An object-oriented program is a collection of self-contained objects, each object containing its own data and its own logic, and they communicate between themselves to solve a problem. Every object contains data that describes the state of the object, has a set of defined behaviors that the object knows how to do, and has an individual identity that makes it possible to distinguish one object from another, just as it’s possible to distinguish one program variable from another.
