Abstract
In this chapter, you’ll learn the concepts behind object-oriented programming (OOP), a style of coding in which related actions are grouped into classes to aid in creating more-compact, effective code. The back end of the project you’ll be building in this book is heavily based on OOP, so the concepts covered in this chapter will be referenced often throughout the rest of the exercises you’ll complete.
