- Define the key terms and identify the main components.
- Draw or describe the workflow, architecture, formula, or process where relevant.
- Connect the idea to a practical BCA example and revise common advantages or limitations.
02
Classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, and interfaces
Revise the definition, components, workflow, common examples, and practical use of classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, and interfaces. Relate it to a small problem or case study from OOP in Java.
