RTU 3rd sem Computer Engineering B.Tech. Syllabus Object Oriented Programming

3CS4A OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING

Unit I

Introduction: Review of structures in C, accessing members of structures using
structure variables, pointer to structures, passing structures to functions, structures as
user defined data types.

Unit II

Introduction to programming paradigms- (Process oriented and Object oriented).
Concept of object, class, objects as variables of class data type, difference in
structures and class in terms of access to members, private and public Basics of
C++: Structure of C++ programs, introduction to defining member functions within
and outside a class, keyword using, declaring class, creating objects, constructors &
destructor functions, Initializing member values with and without use of
constructors, simple programs to access & manipulate data members, cin and cout
functions. Dangers of returning reference to a private data member, constant objects
and members function, composition of classes, friend functions and classes, using
this pointer, creating and destroying objects dynamically using new and delete
operators.
Static class members, container classes and iterators, proxy classes.
members of a class, data & function members. Characteristics of OOP- Data hiding,
Encapsulation, data security.

Unit III

Operator overloading: Fundamentals, Restrictions, operator functions as class
members v/s as friend functions. Overloading stream function, binary operators and
unary operators. Converting between types.

Unit IV

Inheritance: Base classes and derived classes, protected members, relationship
between base class and derived classes, constructors and destructors in derived
classes, public, private and protected inheritance, relationship among objects in an
inheritance hierarchy, abstract classes, virtual functions and dynamic binding, virtual
destructors.

Unit V

Multiple inheritance, virtual base classes, pointers to classes and class members,
multiple class members. Templates, exception handling.
