Difference between Object & Instance in Oops

 Instance refers to the copy of the object at a particular time whereas object refers to the memory address of the class.

OR,

eg:Bike b1=new Bile();

Bike b2=new Bike()

—->we create two instances for storing two bike object values.

→At this stage b1&b2 are just instances because they have not contain any Bike object values.

—-> after storing values in instances then they are treated as objects

—-> we can store values in instances in 3 ways

1.Directly by assigning values to variables

2.Through constructers

3. Through setter methods

like

b1.brand=”pulsur”

then the b1 contains values so we can say it object

OR,

instance means just creating a reference(copy) .

object :means when memory location is associated with the object( is a runtime entity of the class)  by using the new operator

OR,

Instance referes to Reference of an object.

Object is actaully pointing to memory address of that instance.
