példányosító

Példányosító, also known as instantiation, is a fundamental concept in object-oriented programming. It refers to the process of creating an object from a class. A class acts as a blueprint or template, defining the properties (attributes) and behaviors (methods) that objects of that class will possess. When a class is instantiated, a concrete, independent instance of that class is generated in memory.

This newly created object has its own unique set of attribute values, even though it shares the same structure and behaviors as other objects created from the same class. For example, if a 'Car' class is defined with attributes like 'color' and 'model', instantiating 'Car' would create individual car objects, each with its own specific color and model. The act of instantiation typically involves calling the class name as if it were a function, often with the 'new' keyword in many programming languages.

The term "példányosító" itself is the Hungarian word for instantiation. In software development, understanding and utilizing instantiation is crucial for building complex and modular applications. It allows for the representation of real-world entities and concepts within a program, enabling developers to manage and manipulate data effectively through the creation and interaction of these object instances. Each instance is distinct and can be manipulated independently without affecting other instances of the same class.
