An object is a component of a program that knows how to perform certain actions and to interact with other pieces of the program.As we know, Functions are "black boxes" that take an input and spit out an output. Objects can be thought of as "smart" black boxes. That is, objects can know how to do more than one specific task, and they can store their own set of data.

Object, in Object Oriented terminology, is synonymous to Class in C++. However, in C++, Object is synonymous to what is called as an instance in Object Oriented terminology.

In C++, Object is an instance of a Class that has a runtime state, and is associated with certain specific methods that can change its state.
