• Key Concepts: 
  Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm that uses objects and their interactions to design applications and computer programs. It is based on the concept of objects, which are data structures that contain data, in the form of fields, and code, in the form of procedures. OOP allows developers to create reusable code, which can be used in multiple applications. In SAP, OOP is used in the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) to create applications that are more efficient and easier to maintain.
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use OOP in SAP, developers must first understand the basic concepts of OOP. This includes understanding classes, objects, inheritance, encapsulation, abstraction, and polymorphism. Once these concepts are understood, developers can begin writing code using OOP principles. This code can then be used to create applications within the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA).
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When writing code using OOP principles in SAP, it is important to keep the code organized and easy to read. This will make it easier for other developers to understand and maintain the code. Additionally, it is important to use meaningful names for classes and objects so that they are easily identifiable.
