Introduction

"Object-oriented programming is a method of implementation in which programs are organised as cooperative collections of objects, each of which repressents an instance of some class, and whoes classes are all members of a hierarchy of classes united via inheritance relationships."taken from Object-Oriented Analysis and Design by Grady Booch
For all the things that we define as object oriented, the main framework is the object model. (what is object model) There are main elements of an object model, namely -:

  • Abstraction
  • Encapsulation
  • Modularity
  • Hierarchy

The goal of this article is to describe how abstraction relates to object oriented languages.
