Section 1.8 Getting Started with Data
C++ considers data to be the focal point of the problem-solving process. We stated above that C++ supports the object-oriented programming paradigm. In C++, as well as in any other object-oriented programming language, we define a class to be a description of what the data looks like (the state) and what the data can do (the behavior). Classes are analogous to abstract data types because a user of a class only sees the state and behavior of a data item. Data items are called objects in the object-oriented paradigm. An object is an instance of a class.
