Why is java not 100% pure OOPS language?

[chinmay.sahoo]

Java doesn’t support 100% pure OOPS concept, since it support primitive datatype like int, long, byte etc, these are not objects.

 

[alberto-morrison]

Pure Object Oriented Language or Complete Object-Oriented Language are Fully Object-Oriented Language which supports or have features which treat everything inside the program as objects. It doesn’t support primitive datatype(like int, char, float, bool, etc.).

There are seven qualities to be satisfied for a programming language to be pure Object Oriented. They are:
⦁ Encapsulation/Data Hiding
⦁ Inheritance
⦁ Polymorphism
⦁ Abstraction
⦁ All predefined types are objects
⦁ All user-defined types are objects
⦁ All operations performed on objects must be only through methods exposed to the objects.

Java supports property 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 but fails to support property 5 and 7 given above.

Java is not a pure OOP language due to two reasons-

The primitive data types. These include int,char,etc. These can be used without the use of any object. (Eg. int a=5; System.out.print(a)
The static keyword.When we declare a class as 'static' then it can be referenced without the use of an object.

java is not a pure oops language...

Java is a OOP language and it is not a pure Object Based Programming Language.
Many languages are Object Oriented. There are seven qualities to be satisfied
for a programming language to be pure Object Oriented. They are:Encapsulation/Data Hiding Inheritance Polymorphism Abstraction All predefined types are objects All operations are performed by sending messages to objects All user defined types are objects.Java is not because it supports Primitive datatype such as int, byte, long... etc, to be used, which are not objects. Contrast with a pure OOP language like Smalltalk, where there are no primitive types, and boolean, int and methods are all objects.
