Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) and Java/IDE Installation

Hello World,

Today I'm going to discuss object-oriented programming or, OOP. OP is a type of programming that organizes the software design around objects or data rather than the functions and logic. Objects can be defined as data that has unique attributes or behaviors. it focuses on what developers want to manipulate instead of the logic used to I'm manipulate them. Object oriented programming is beneficial for collaborative creation and development where a project is divided into different responsibilities or groups. OP code benefits include reusability, scalability and efficiency.

One of the most popular OP programs is Java. The installation of Java is straightforward. Whether you're using a Windows based, Mac, Linux or other operating systems the program is available for download directly from java's website. Once you have downloaded and installed Java, you will need to download an IDE or Integrated Development Environment. This is a software application that assists programmers in the development of software code. It makes the creation of code easier and more efficient. Below are the links to a great article about OOP, Java’s website for the Java download, A link to a website that has the top 15 IDE’s, and a YouTube video that discusses the ins and outs of installation and use of the IDE that I use which is IntelliJ IDEA. After installing the IDE you will also need to install an SDK (Software Development Kit). I used JDK ( Java Development Kit) which was available for download within the IntelliJ IDEA application.
