What is object-oriented programming?

A programming technique that uses objects
A type of programming language
A modular programming concept
A scripting language

The correct answer is: A programming technique that uses objects

Object-oriented programming is a specific programming technique in which programs are built using data structures called objects that contain data in the form of attributes and code in the form of methods. These objects can interact with each other to perform specific tasks. Option B is incorrect because object-oriented programming is not a language itself, but rather a programming approach that can be used in various languages. Option C is incorrect because while object-oriented programming does promote modularity, it is not the defining feature of this approach. Option D is incorrect because scripting languages are not necessarily object-oriented.
