Python OOP Concepts
1. What are OOP Concepts?
OOP means Object-Oriented Programming.
In simple words:
👉 OOP is a way to write programs using classes and objects
👉 It helps make code clean, reusable, and easy to manage
Python OOP has four main concepts:
-
Class & Object
-
Encapsulation
-
Inheritance
-
Polymorphism
2. Class and Object
What is a Class?
A class is a blueprint.
What is an Object?
An object is a real thing made from a class.
Example
3. Encapsulation
Encapsulation means keeping data safe inside a class.
In simple words:
👉 Data and methods stay together
👉 We control how data is used
Example
👉 User cannot directly change balance without method.
4. Inheritance
Inheritance means one class gets features from another class.
In simple words:
👉 Child class uses parent class code
👉 Saves time and code
Example
5. Polymorphism
Polymorphism means same method name, different behavior.
In simple words:
👉 Same function
👉 Different results
Example
6. Abstraction (Basic Idea)
Abstraction means hiding complex details.
In simple words:
👉 Show only what is needed
👉 Hide how it works
Example
👉 User does not know engine details.
7. Why Use OOP?
✔ Code is reusable
✔ Easy to maintain
✔ Easy to understand
✔ Used in real projects
8. Real-Life Example (Student System)
Example
9. Common Beginner Mistakes
❌ Forgetting self
❌ Wrong.
❌ Thinking OOP is Mandatory
👉 Small programs can be simple.
10. Simple Practice Examples
Example 1: Shape
Example 2: Employee
Example 3: Vehicle
11. Summary (Python OOP Concepts)
✔ OOP uses classes and objects
✔ Encapsulation keeps data safe
✔ Inheritance reuses code
✔ Polymorphism allows flexibility
✔ OOP makes programs powerful
