Osztálydiagramok

Osztálydiagramok (Class Diagrams) are a fundamental type of diagram in the Unified Modeling Language (UML). They are used to model the static structure of a system by showing the system's classes, their attributes, operations, and the relationships between them.

A class in a class diagram is represented by a rectangle divided into three sections. The top section contains the name of the class. The middle section lists the attributes, which are the data members or properties of the class. The bottom section lists the operations, which are the methods or functions that the class can perform.

Relationships between classes are depicted using various line types and symbols. Common relationships include association, which represents a structural relationship between two classes; aggregation, a "has-a" relationship where one class is part of another but can exist independently; and composition, a stronger "owns-a" relationship where the part cannot exist without the whole. Inheritance, also known as generalization, shows an "is-a" relationship, where a subclass inherits properties and behaviors from a superclass.

Class diagrams are crucial for object-oriented design and analysis. They help developers understand the structure of a system, identify potential issues, and communicate design decisions effectively. By visualizing the classes and their interactions, teams can ensure a well-organized and maintainable codebase. They serve as a blueprint for software development, guiding the implementation process.
