  • Reusability Object Oriented Programming Essay
    ...Reusability of Code PRG 211 25 MARCH 2013 (Week 1) Marcus Fernandez Designing and coding a procedure, module, or object can be complex and time consuming. Once these elements of a computer program are working correctly, it makes sense to use the code as often as practical. Code reusability has become a valuable part of adding efficiency to computer programming. When it comes to solving the problem of code/data separation, the use of Object –Oriented Programming has played a big role in the rising of object reusability. An object is not considered a standalone program; instead it is the service being used in the programs. For example, Sharon is a programmer who has developed an object for rendering 3D images. She is a math whiz and has extensive knowledge about computer graphics, so her object is coded to perform the necessary 3D mathematical operations and handle the computer’s video hardware. Tom, who is writing a program for an architectural firm, needs his application to display 3D images of buildings. Because he is working under a tight deadline and does not possess a great deal of knowledge about computer graphics, he purchases the code from Sharon for a monetary value. The programmer has his own way of adding his own security to his software, for...

  • Object Oriented Programming Essay
    ...Essay Object oriented programming was developed because limitation was discovered in earlier approaches to programing. The evolution to the object oriented programming is based on the following previous languages. Evolution in computer programming languages: In the earlier time, at the beginning of programming the “Punch Card“ was used for the programming purpose. Then with the passage of time human tried to work on the binary digits called “Machine Language”. 1. Machine Language In the machine language only the two digits (0,1) are used. Binary language is directly understandable for the machine. All the programming is done in the form of (o s, 1s) . As directly understandable for the machine it is too hard to remember for human beings. This factor leads us towards the Assembly language. 2. Assembly Language First computer program were written in assembly language. Mnemonic are used in it. Mnemonic is a combination of English word and OP code. For example ADD 2,5 etc. Assembly language is specific for the particular type of computer. It is machine dependent language. 3. High level language After assembly language high level order languages were developed. Among the earlier time “ FORTRAN BASIC ” was used . One instruction in high language corresponds to a one statement. A compiler is used to read the source file...

  • Comparison of Object Oriented and Structured Programming Essay
    ... OO Comparison Paper Object-oriented programming is the predominant paradigm in the software development world. Thus, it is important to understand how object-oriented programming works. One useful exercise may be to compare and contrast object-oriented programming to more traditional structured programming. I will do just that in this essay. We will review some history, give a brief overview of both paradigms, and discuss how they are similar and different. First it’s important to understand the history of these methodologies. Structured programming is itself an improvement of a more primitive paradigm. As the first computers gave way to more powerful systems in the 50s and 60s, the programs that ran on them became more complex. The Goto statement became very common, as it allowed additional flexibility by transferring control to different parts of a program. However, the overuse of the Goto statement resulted in programs becoming so convoluted as to be unreadable by even expert programmers. Such tangled logical sequences became known as “spaghetti code.” Computer scientists recognized a need for order, and structured programming was the result. They rejected the Goto statement, and instead proposed the three basic control structures that we still use today: sequence, selection, and iteration. They...

  • 03 Object-oriented Programming and Cups Essay
    ...1. Marco and his two younger sisters would like to purchase a silver charm bracelet for their mother’s birthday. They went to the mall and found what they were looking for at Store A. In Store A, the bracelet without charms costs $85 and each charm costs $15. A. Use function notation that models the total price of the bracelet and how that price is based on the number of charms. Explain the reasoning behind your equation. f(x) = 15x + 85 B. What would be a reasonable domain for this function based on this scenario? Explain why this is a proper domain. x >= 0 C. Marco found five charms that he likes.  Using your function, determine the cost of the bracelet he would make. The total cost would be 160. D. As they walked down the hall of the mall, Marco saw this sales flyer for Store B on a bench. 2. While in the United States visiting her grandmother, Kendra copied the famous family apple pie recipe. When she returns to England, she plans on making the same apple pie for her friends. To do this, Kendra needs to convert the flour from cups to grams. She knows that 0.5 cup of flour has a mass of 64 grams and 2 cups of flour has a mass of 256 grams. A. Write a function that shows grams as a function of cups. Use g(x). G(x) =128x B. Given this scenario, determine a reasonable domain for this function. 0 < = x <infinity C. Evaluate g(x) for any value of x within the domain. Interpret the meaning of your solution in the context of this problem g(x)=128(0.75)....
