What is the primary action in object-oriented programming as described?

  1. Declaring structs

  2. Instantiating classes

  3. Sending messages to objects

  4. Creating static methods

The correct answer is: Sending messages to objects

Object-oriented programming is a programming paradigm that focuses on creating objects that have certain properties and behaviors. In this paradigm, the primary action is to send messages to objects, also known as calling methods. This allows objects to interact with each other and perform tasks. Declaring structs (A) and instantiating classes (B) are important steps in creating objects, but they are not the primary action. Creating static methods (D) is also an important aspect of object-oriented programming, but it is not the primary action as it only allows for the execution of code without creating objects.
