Object-oriented programming (OOP). • Create your own data types. • Use them in your programs (manipulate objects). An abstract data type is a data type
PART I: PROGRAMMING IN JAVA http://introcs.cs.princeton.edu An abstract data type is a data type whose representation is hidden from the client.
The key idea of data abstraction is that a type is characterized by the In Java as in many modern programming languages
Elementary data structures are often briefly introduced in the first programming or introduction to computer science course and this is followed by a more in-
interface in Java where only method signatures are defined is an even better example of an abstract data type. The use of these features is intended to
