Encapsulation

▪ The encapsulation is to hide

the methods and attributes
of an object.
 Visibility

▪ These are restrictions that allow or deny

access to methods and attributes of a
class.
▪ Public: Accessible from any class.
▪ Private: Accessible only by the current
class.
▪ Protected: Accessible only by the current
class, daughters classes and classes of the
same package.
▪ Nothing: Accessible only by classes of the
same package.
Getter and setter methods

▪ These are used for consult and modify the private attributes of a
class.
Getter and setter methods

Private attributes:
Using getter and setter methods

Result:
Using getter and setter methods

Classwork # 4:

Inheritance

Inheritance is to construct a child

class of a parent class.
▪ Allows reuse code.
▪ The child class inherits the
attributes and methods of the
parent class.
Inheritance example

▪ Create a new class into “Mathematics_V1” named “DecimalNumber”

and extend it from “Number”.
Inheritance example

Result:
Inheritance example

Classwork # 5:
Create a new class into “Mathematics_V1” named “NegativeNumber”
that inherits from “DecimalNumber” and add a new attribute designate
“NegativeNumber” .

Modify the main class for show the new result.

 Example of SeminaryStudents_V1 class

▪ Create a new project named

“SeminaryStudents_V1”.
▪ Make also two classes named
“MainClass” and “Stundet”.
 Example of SeminaryStudents_V1 class

Student
- Name: String
- Address: String
- Picture: String
- Age: Integer
- Phone: Integer
- Commentary: String

+Student(name: String, address: String, age: int, phone: int, commentary:String)

+toStringStudents(): String

Test of generated code from main class.

Polymorphism

▪ Consist in to declare an object of a parent class but instantiate it with

the constructor of the child class.

Example:
<Parent class> OBJECT = new <Child class>(settings)
Interface

▪ The interface is an abstract class that contain methods but these not
implemented. It can also contain attributes but static and final type.

Example:
List

▪ The list is a vector that organize elements in sequential order, and

each element have an identifier of position beginning by zero.

Example:
List example
