Lecture
This lecture introduces the concepts of encapsulation and abstraction in object-oriented programming using a Tic-Tac-Toe game as a case study. The instructor explains the importance of encapsulating data and providing controlled access to it, showcasing the drawbacks of exposing implementation details. Through examples, the lecture demonstrates how encapsulation can improve code readability, maintainability, and robustness. By encapsulating the game logic and data representation, the lecture shows how to prevent invalid data input and ensure the integrity of the game state. The benefits of encapsulation include improved code quality, reduced complexity, and enhanced modularity, allowing developers to focus on high-level design rather than low-level details.
