| DESCRIPTION | This unit is a study-unit in programming specifically designed for engineers and is a continuation of CIS1111. This aim of this unit is to introduce Object Oriented Programming. The chosen language is C++ as it is a very popular and important Object Oriented Language in the engineering environments. Topics in brief: • The C++ Language and difference between C and C++ • C++ programming basics • Object Oriented Programming theory • Classes and an objects • Operator overloading • Inheritance • Polymorphism • Exception handling • Templates Study-unit Aims: This study-unit aims to teach students good object oriented programming techniques and a very good insight to the C++ programming language and problem solving techniques. Learning Outcomes: 1. Knowledge & Understanding: By the end of the study-unit the student will be able to design and implement software and algorithms using the C++ programming language and also perform engineering related tasks using object oriented programming techniques. 2. Skills: By the end of the study-unit the student will be able to use the theoretical knowledge of constructs in the 'C++' language to program in other object oriented languages, as well as to relate programming skills to the development of applications specific software. Main Text/s and any supplementary readings: Full notes will be provided by the lecturer. Suggested textbook: • P.J. Deitel & H.M. Deitel. "C++ How to Program", 9th edition, Prentice Hall, 2013. |
