Most Android developers will use Java to write their apps. Java is an object oriented programming language. But what precisely does that mean?

“Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) has been created with one goal in mind -- to manage the complexity of procedural codebases. In other words, it was supposed to improve code organisation ...

Academic researchers have published a study investigating the effect of programming languages on software quality, concluding the issue is hard to quantify but also identifying significant findings, ...

Functional programming supports well-defined, defensible software giving reproducible results. Object-oriented programming is the mechanism par excellence for managing complexity while keeping things ...

An assertion is a formal constraint on the behavior of a software application. Programmers commonly write such a constraint as an annotation, and it ...
