  1. What is object-oriented programming? Explain four basic principles of              OOP with suitable examples. ANS:  Object-oriented programming combines a group of data attributes with functions or methods into a unit called an "object." Typically, OOP languages are class-based, which means that a class defines the data attributes and functions as a blueprint for creating objects, which are instances of the class. Popular class-based OOP languages include Java, Python, and C++. Multiple independent objects may be instantiated—or represented—from the same class and interact with each other in complex ways. Object-oriented programming has four basic concepts: encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance, and polymorphism. Even if these concepts seem incredibly complex, understanding the general framework of how they work will help you understand the basics of an OOP computer program. Below, we outline these four basic principles and what they ...
