Class diagram

Using a class object within another class object is known as _______

Composition

1. The ability to use methods without knowing the details of their contents is a feature of _______.

Encapsulation

A program or class that instantiates methods of another prewritten class is a class client or class user.

False

Declaring a class creates actual objects.

False

When you think in an object-oriented manner, everything is an object, and every object is a member of a method.

False

Object attributes are often called _______ to help distinguish them from other variables you might use.

Fields

The relationship created when using a class object within another class object is also called a(n) ____ relationship

Has-a

_______ is the concept that other classes should not alter an object's attributes-only the methods of an object's own class should have that privilege.

Information hiding

When using ________, you can develop new classes more quickly by extending existing classes that already work.

Inheritance

______ is the process of acquiring the traits of one's predecessors

Inheritance

A(n) ____ method operates appropriately for such separate instance of a class.

True

Creating multiple methods with the same name, which will act differently and appropriately when used with different types of objects, is known as polymorphism.

True

In addition to their attributes, class objects have methods associated with them, and every object that is an instance of a class possesses that same methods.

True

The purpose of set methods is to set the values of data fields within the class

True

With object-oriented programming, once you create an object, you can develop new objects that possess all the traits of the original object, plus any new traits you desire.

True

With will-written methods that belong to classes you use, you need not understand how they work internally to be able to use them. Will be like if any objects are even

True
