1. SE1011 Week 6, Class 1 Today Return Half Exam 2 (cont.) Object Oriented Programming (cont.) Muddiest Point Next Half Exam: Week 7, Monday SE-1011 Slide design: Dr. Mark L. Hornick Instructor: Dr. Yoder 1

2. Muddiest Point How the class return the value to the main program? How to choose this variables to be returned?return value how to use the info we generated in clock ideas into separate pieces of codedesign to code formatter versus printfformatter How does any of this actually work? seeing Clock in action would have helped.clock in action Hardest part to me would be what is "private" exactly?public/private Where to create a new class for an object, and when to incorporate that info into the main classmultiple classes The first part of the lecture, how to differentiate between an object and an instance o a classobject/instance 2

3. Muddiest Point (2) more uses for formater?formatter Java standards on what to make public and what to make privatepublic/private do you have to make a separate class for the objects you create? multiple classes how are you supposed to get the clock to count and show on its own.clock in action public vs. private\public/private What exactly is an address? Are they useful?address should the lab be in console or GUI?lab 5 Are methods just functions in a class?methods 3

4. IEEE Xtreme Competition 24 hour programming competition Deadline for registration is tomorrow – see your email I will proctor a few hours of the competition If you have prior programming experience, I recommend the competition If you have lots of free time, I also recommend it, regardless of your experience level SE-1011 Slide design: Dr. Mark L.

5. Object Oriented Programming Why use object oriented programming (OOP)? Natural way to model real-world objects describe computing components Encapsulation! Present clean interface and behavior to users Users don't have to know internals to use Helps detect and correct for errors SE-1011 Slide design: Dr. Mark L. Hornick Instructor: Dr. Yoder 5

6. What is an Object? A class defines a new type of object An object is an instance of a class with its own values for instance variables behaviors performed using its own instance variables Unlike primitive … types, class types are defined based on other types, and define behaviors values, objects have behaviors variables, a variable with a class type actually holds a reference, not the object directly 6
