Effective Term Spring 2019 (555)

Requisites

Prerequisite COP 2220 with a minimum grade of C

Course Description

This is an advanced programming course in C language. Emphasis is placed on programming using classes and structures in C++. Topics covered will include classes, structures, and exception handling.

Learning Outcomes and Objectives

  1. The student will be able to write code to create and manage structured C++ by:
    1. creating structures.
    2. storing data into structures and arrays of structures.
    3. creating and implementing classes and structures in separate files and utilizing the correct precompiler directives to manage complex projects.
  2. The student will be able to create and implement classes utilizing overloading, static data and functions, polymorphism and inheritance by:
    1. building classes, which are used in another class to provide inheritance.
    2. building classes which are used in another class to provide inheritance.
    3. building classes using late binding techniques ( polymorphism ).
    4. analyzing usage of polymorphism.
    5. building and describing static data and functions in classes.
  3. The student will be able to create, write and read data files by:
    1. utilizing the fopen, fread, fwrite or open, read, write series of file functions.
    2. building code to read and write file data to the disk.
  4. The student will be able to include built in functions in a C++ program by:
    1. using the help system to find a function needed in a particular circumstance.
    2. using the function and including the appropriate header file in the program.

Criteria Performance Standard

The student will, through written programs and instructor evaluation of programs plus whatever testing mechanisms are chosen by the instructor, demonstrate the ability to plan and create a multi-function C++ program utilizing all of the required skills and techniques.
