Object-Oriented Programming
In this part, you will explore Kotlin’s object-oriented programming (OOP) paradigm, gaining a solid understanding of how Kotlin builds upon and enhances traditional OOP principles. You will start with the fundamentals, learning about classes, objects, inheritance, and encapsulation, and how Kotlin simplifies these concepts while maintaining flexibility. Next, you will dive into generics, which enable type-safe and reusable code by allowing parameterized types, ensuring robust and maintainable applications. Finally, you will explore data classes and sealed classes – two powerful Kotlin features designed for immutability, structured data representation, and controlled inheritance. By the end of this part, you will have a strong grasp of Kotlin’s OOP model, equipping you with the skills to design clean, efficient, and scalable applications.
