This course builds upon the fundamentals covered in Introduction to Programming with Python and prepares you to build more robust, extensible applications using object-oriented programming concepts.
Overview
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a method of programming that allows developers to build large, complex applications around a series of "objects" that communicate with each other. OOP is based upon four key principles – abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism – all of which are explained and demonstrated in this course.
Students are given a thorough introduction to OO principles, followed by hands-on practice adapting the programming techniques they've already learned to incorporate them.
Prerequisites
