- What is object-oriented programming, and how is it different from procedural programming?
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm that organizes software design around objects, while procedural programming focuses on procedures.
In OOP, data and functions are encapsulated within objects, which can interact with each other through their methods. In contrast, in procedural programming, data, and functions are separate, and functions operate on the data that is passed to them.
OOP provides benefits such as encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism, while procedural programming can be simpler for small programs but can become more difficult to manage and maintain as programs become larger and more complex.
