Course Objective
The aim of this course is to teach students the fundamental concepts of object-oriented programming and to equip them with the skills to develop effective, modular, reusable, and sustainable software using these concepts. The course covers core topics such as classes, objects, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, abstract classes, interfaces, constructor/destructor functions, operator overloading, and error handling, with the goal of enabling students to solve real-world problems using object-oriented thinking.
Course Content
Object-oriented programming concepts, introduction to the C++ programming language, class and object structures, data privacy and integrity, constructor and destructor, dynamic memory management, inheritance and polymorphism, abstract classes, operator overloading, error handling.
