Python vs Java: Object Oriented Programming (Summary)
Throughout this course, you learned how object-oriented principles differ in Python vs Java.
You learned about:
- Building a basic class in both Java and Python
- How object attributes work in Python vs Java
- How to compare and contrast Java methods and Python functions
- Working with inheritance and polymorphism mechanisms in both languages
- How reflection works across Python vs Java
- How to apply everything in a complete class implementation in both languages

00:00Welcome to the end of the Object-Oriented Programming in Python versus Javacourse. Let’s review what we did.
00:08You started with a basic class in Java, and you saw how to write it in Python.We looked at how attributes worked in Python, including object attributes,class attributes, properties, and how to control access to them.
00:23We saw the notion of a Python function,which can exist outside of any class, for instance.We saw how Python implemented inheritance and made use of polymorphism.
00:35We looked at how objects in Python can discover information about themselves.And we put all that together to write a full class implementation inPython.
00:46I hope you enjoyed this course, and look forward to seeing you in another onevery soon.
