Video Overview
This lecture introduces the process of defining classes and creating objects in Java, laying the foundation for object-oriented programming. We discuss how classes serve as blueprints for objects, focusing on instance variables, access modifiers (public, private, and package-level), and constructors, including default, overloaded, and copy constructors. The lecture also covers accessor (getter) and mutator (setter) methods, showing how encapsulation ensures safe and controlled access to object data. Finally, we explore the differences between shallow and deep copying, highlighting practical scenarios where each approach is relevant.
