Instantiation

In object programming, the creation of an object from a class

Introduction to the notion

The relation of a semantic class – the concept – to a specific object is the instantiation. The object can also be referred to as an “instance of the class”. This relation can be seen as one of an object as a class member, class being taken as a set of objects that come under the concept. We can also describe the class as being the “mold” which makes the objects or the representations of objects, according to whether they are abstract objects or physical objects.
