Intended learning outcomes

The aim of the course is to equip students with the necessary knowledge to develop programs in C++. To pass the course, the student must fulfill following learning outcomes:

  • To use pointers and dynamic memory allocation.
  • To program dynamic data structures.
  • To write object oriented programs with inheritance, association and aggregates.
  • To use polymorphism and dynamic binding.
  • To define classes with overloaded operators.
  • To write and use class/function templates.
  • To write programs using different types of streams.
  • To use data structures, algorithms and iterators from the C++ standard library

Course content

Pointers and dynamic memory allocation/deallocation. Singly-linked lists. Classes and inheritance. Constructors and destructors. Operator overloading. Friends. Virtual functions. Abstract classes. Streams and data files. Templates. Namespaces. C++ standard library: container classes, iterators, and algorithms.
