Course Description
Object-oriented programming is a computer programming model that allows the developer to combine data and functions that operate on the data into the same structure, known as an object; this is especially useful for modeling real world systems and devices in software.
The way that an object is defined allows for code specifically for operating on the data to be built into the object itself. Objects themselves have fields and features that are unique to that object in such a way that the objects have specialized behavior. Although there is only one type of object in MATLAB—known as the MATLAB array—the functionality of the MATLAB array varies depending on the data type.
In this MATLAB module, you will discover the principles of object-oriented programming, and the difference between data and data structures. You will also discover how code and general-purpose functions fit into object-oriented programming in MATLAB.
What You'll Learn
- Understand how data is treated in object-oriented programming (OOP)
- Recognize the differences in the roles of data and code in OOP
- Understand the role of general-purpose functions in OOP
- Explore the principles of object-oriented programming and the difference between data and data structures
- Examine how the MATLAB array functions differently depending on its data type
Key Takeaways
- Object-oriented programming is a model that combines data and the functions that operate on that data into the same structure, known as an object.
- Defining an object allows code specifically for operating on its data to be built into the object itself, giving objects specialized behavior.
- MATLAB has only one type of object, the MATLAB array, whose functionality varies depending on the data type.
- The module covers how data, code, and general-purpose functions fit into object-oriented programming in MATLAB.
- OOP is especially useful for modeling real world systems and devices in software.
