Objects in Java

Let us now look deep into what are objects. If we consider the real-world we can find many objects around us, Cars, Dogs, Humans etc. All these objects have a state and behavior.


If we consider a dog then its state is . name, breed, color, and the behavior is . barking, wagging, running
If you compare the software object with a real world object, they have very similar characteristics.
Software objects also have a state and behavior. A software object's state is stored in fields and behavior is shown via methods.


So in software development methods operate on the internal state of an object and the object-to-object communication is done via methods.
