Object-oriented programming allows us to hide the object's data attributes from code that is outside the object.

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Consider the statement about object-oriented programming (OOP) and data visibility.
Option 1: True. In OOP, encapsulation is a core principle that hides an object's internal data (its attributes) from external code, exposing only a controlled interface (methods). This protects the integrity of the object’s state and enforces invariants, which is the essence of data hiding.
Option 2: False. If you asserted that OOP does not hide data, you would be contradicting encapsulation, a fundamental concept. Without hiding data, external code could freely modify internal attributes, leading to potential inconsistencies and tightly coupled components.
To summarize the intuition: data hiding via encapsulation is a standard feature of OOP, and the ability to restrict direct access to an object's attributes is precisely what makes the statement true. Conversely, denying this capability would misrepresent how OOP manages object state and interface exposure.
