Beyond Object-Oriented Programming

The complexity of a software project affects how difficult it is to develop, implement, and maintain the project. The procedural approach, or procedural programming paradigm, might be used to create a straightforward calculator, but a bank account management system would be too difficult to develop in this way.

The object-oriented programming (OOP) paradigm, which is supported by C++, is based on breaking down entities into objects that coexist in a web of close intercommunication. Imagine a simple situation where you use the remote to switch the TV station in the real world. The remote control, the TV, and, most importantly, you, are all involved in this activity. To express real-world objects and their relationship using a programming language, we aren’t forced to use classes, class inheritance, abstract classes, interfaces, virtual functions, and so on. While not necessary, the aforementioned capabilities and concepts make the process...
