1What is OOP?Recommended startDefines object-oriented programming clearly, then connects objects, responsibilities, and the main OOP mechanisms to practical C# design.Concept questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 2Class vs objectExplains the difference between a class and an object, then connects type definitions, instances, identity, and shared behavior to practical C# code.Comparison questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 3Model useful objectsStarts object-oriented design from cohesive state and behavior instead of creating classes for every noun in a requirement.Concept questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 4EncapsulationUses controlled state transitions and intention-revealing APIs to keep objects valid rather than treating encapsulation as private fields alone.Concept questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 5What is abstraction?Defines abstraction as a deliberate contract over essential behavior, then explains practical C# boundaries and the cost of weak abstractions.Concept questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 6Abstraction vs encapsulationSeparates hiding implementation complexity from controlling access to state, with practical examples where both ideas work together.Concept questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 7Interface vs abstract classChooses contracts and shared implementation based on substitutability, state ownership, evolution, and inheritance constraints.Concept questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 8Use inheritance safelyUses inheritance only for stable behavioral subtyping and tests whether derived objects preserve the promises callers rely on.Concept questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 9Composition over inheritanceCombines focused collaborators for independent behavior while recognizing cases where a genuine stable hierarchy remains simpler.Concept questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 10Runtime polymorphismExplains how callers use one contract while runtime dispatch selects implementation, then connects that mechanism to extensible behavior.Concept questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 11Method dispatch in C#Separates compile-time overload selection from runtime virtual dispatch and diagnoses method hiding through a base reference.Debugging scenarioHard~12 min.NETC#Practice 12Access modifiersUses public, internal, protected, private, and protected internal deliberately to control API surface and inheritance exposure.Concept questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 13Object constructionCreates valid objects with clear intent while choosing construction patterns proportionally to optional data, validation, and lifecycle complexity.Concept questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 14ImmutabilityChooses immutable values and controlled mutable entities based on identity, concurrency, invariants, allocation cost, and update semantics.Concept questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 15Static vs instance stateUses static members for type-wide stateless behavior and constants while avoiding hidden global mutable state and lifetime problems.Concept questionEasy~5 min.NETC#Practice 16Records, classes, and structsChooses a type shape from identity, value semantics, mutation, copy cost, default values, and serialization boundaries.Comparison questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 17Equality and hash codesConnects equality semantics to hash-based collections and chooses identity or value equality deliberately.Concept questionMedium~7 min.NETC#Practice 18Object collaborationMoves invariant-sensitive decisions toward the owning object while keeping orchestration, queries, and cross-boundary work appropriately explicit.Architecture scenarioHard~9 min.NETC#Practice
