Why learn about object-oriented programming in Java

“

- [Instructor] Are you familiar with Java but want to write code that's reusable and maintainable? Then this is the course for you. I'll show you how to use the object oriented programming model to write code that's secure, scalable and easier to troubleshoot. We'll start by exploring what object orientation means and show how it's embedded into the Java language from the first code file you create. Then we'll discover how classes, instances and constructors embody the idea of representing objects in code. We'll also explore how built-in Java libraries leverage object orientation behind and scenes. In this course we'll try get away from the abstract and focus on concrete practical examples that make the theoretical idea of object orientation real. The best design model to follow will depend on what you're building but it's essential to recognize that Java is an object oriented language. Hi, my name is Kathryn and I'm a software engineer. Okay, ready? Let's get started.
