Q.

Design an object-oriented model for a library system including: Books, Members, Reservations. Explain abstraction, encapsulation, and inheritance in your design.

Answer

1. Start with a clear definition, then explain where the concept appears in real systems.

2. Add one practical example so the answer sounds interview-ready instead of memorized.

3. Close with trade-offs, edge cases, and the mistake candidates usually make.

  • Include one concise example and one common interview caveat.
  • Keep the answer structured enough to revise quickly before a technical screen.
