Chapter 3. Objects and Classes
Objects are the fundamental building blocks of an object-oriented (OO) system. Just as you learned in Chapter 2 that abstraction involves producing a model of the real world, you'll see in this chapter that objects are "mini-abstractions" of the various real-world components that comprise such a model.
In this chapter, you'll learn:
What a software object is made of
How we use classes to specify an object's data and behavior
How we create objects based on a class definition
How objects keep track of one another
