Object Oriented Programming (OOP)

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm based on the concept of "objects", which can contain data and code: data in the form of fields, and code, in the form of procedures. Coursera's OOP catalogue teaches you how to effectively use abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism in your programming projects. You'll learn how to design and implement classes, interfaces, and packages, and how to use these constructs to create robust, reusable code. You'll also learn to apply OOP principles in various programming languages like Java, Python, C++, among others to solve complex computational problems and enhance your software development skills. This skill is vital for roles such as software engineer, application developer, and game developer, to name a few.
