📚This reading discusses the advantages and disadvantages of object-oriented programming,
which is a well-adopted programming style that uses interacting objects to model and solves complex programming tasks.

 Examples of popular object-oriented

• Programming languages are Java and C++.
•  Object-oriented programming languages include ........

✅Advantages of object-oriented programming include 

1. Improved software-development productivity📌

Object-oriented programming is modular.it provides separation of duties in object-based program development. It is extensible, as objects can be extended to include new attributes and
behaviours.

Objects can also be reused within across applications. Because of these three factors – modularity, extensibility, and reusability – object-oriented programming provides improved software-development productivity over traditional procedure-based programming techniques.

2. Improved software maintainability📌

• For the reasons mentioned above, object-oriented software is easier to maintain. 
• The design is modular, part of the system can be updated in case of issues without a need to make large-scale changes.

3. Faster development📌

• Reuse enables faster development. 
• Object-oriented programming languages come with rich libraries of objects, and code developed during projects is also reusable in future projects.

4. Lower cost of development📌

•  The reuse of software also lowers the cost of development. 
• More effort is put into the object-oriented analysis and design, which lowers the overall cost of development.

5. Higher-quality software📌

•  Faster development of software and lower cost of development allows more time and resources to be used in the verification of the software.
•  object-oriented programming tends to result in higher-quality software.

❎Disadvantages of object-oriented programming include

1. Steep learning curve ❌

•  The thought process involved in object-oriented programming may not be natural for some people, and it can take time to get used to it. 
• It is complex to create programs based on the interaction of objects. inheritance and polymorphism are Some of the key programming techniques can be challenging to comprehend initially.

2. Larger program size ❌

• The object-oriented program has more lines of code than procedural programs.

3. Slower programs ❌

•  Object-oriented programs are slower than procedure-based programs, also they require more instructions to be executed.

4. Not suitable for all types of problems ❌

• There are problems that lend themselves well to functional-programming style, logic-programming style, or procedure-based programming style, and applying object-oriented programming in those situations will not result in inefficient programs.
