Instanzrealisierung

Instanzrealisierung refers to the process of creating a concrete instance of an abstract concept or a class in computer programming. In object-oriented programming, a class serves as a blueprint or template for creating objects. Instanzrealisierung is the act of using this blueprint to bring an object into existence with its own specific data and state.

When a class is defined, it specifies the attributes (data members) and behaviors (methods) that objects of that class will possess. However, the class itself is not a tangible entity. Instanzrealisierung involves allocating memory for a new object and initializing its attributes according to the class definition. This newly created object is then referred to as an instance.

For example, if you have a class named "Car," which defines properties like "color" and "model," and a method like "startEngine," instanzrealisierung would involve creating a specific car object, such as "myRedToyota," by assigning values to its color ("red") and model ("Toyota"). This "myRedToyota" is a concrete instance of the abstract "Car" class. This concept is fundamental to how software is structured and how data is managed.
