![Page 6: Introduction to Java Appendix A. Appendix A: Introduction to Java2 Chapter Objectives To understand the essentials of object-oriented programming in Java](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e115503460f94afc5f2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Appendix A: Introduction to Java 6
Classes and Objects
• The class is the fundamental programming unit• Every program is written as a collection of classes• Class definitions are stored in separate files with the
extension .java and the file name must be the same as the class name
• A class is a named description for a group of entities• A class is a general description of a group of entities that
all have the same characteristics; each entity is an object
