can someone please explain what OOP is all about?

Answer 1

Object Oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm that relies on the concept of classes and objects. It is used to structure a software program into simple, reusable pieces of code blueprints (usually called classes), which are used to create individual instances of objects.

Answer 2

The Hacker Well, Python is an object-oriented programming language. This means that every data type in Python is a class (every string in Python is an instance of the class 'str'). OOP is what allows you to use all the built-in methods in Python. If you don't care about OOP, you'll still be able to make great codes but if you want to learn more about Python, then you'd have to have a basic knowledge about OOP.
