    Question

    Which of the following statements accurately describes

    the object-oriented programming (OOP) support in Java and C?
    A Java supports object-oriented programming (OOP) natively, while C is a procedural programming language and does not support OOP. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Both Java and C support object-oriented programming (OOP) natively and provide classes and objects as fundamental concepts. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Java supports object-oriented programming (OOP) through classes and objects, while C supports OOP using structures and function pointers. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D C supports object-oriented programming (OOP) through its class-based system, while Java uses procedural programming paradigms. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Java and C both support object-oriented programming (OOP) using interfaces and inheritance as primary features. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Java is designed as an object-oriented programming language and provides built-in support for OOP concepts such as classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and abstraction. In Java: • Classes and Objects: The fundamental building blocks of Java programs. Classes define the blueprint for objects, and objects are instances of these classes. • Inheritance: Allows one class to inherit fields and methods from another class. • Polymorphism and Encapsulation: Java supports method overloading, method overriding, and access control mechanisms to protect data and behavior. C, on the other hand, is primarily a procedural programming language and does not have built-in support for OOP concepts. While you can use structures and function pointers to emulate some OOP concepts, C does not natively support: • Classes: C does not have the class construct; instead, it uses structures to group related data. • Inheritance and Polymorphism: These features are not natively supported in C. They can be approximated using techniques such as function pointers and structs, but this is not as straightforward or robust as in OOP languages like Java.
