Advanced Programming in C++

Catalog description

This course re-examines earlier C++ topics covered in Computer Science 2 in greater detail and with increased rigor. The course emphasizes the design of advanced Object-Oriented data structures. Topics include data abstraction, abstract classes, single and multiple inheritances, virtual and friend functions, operator overloading, generic data types, the Standard-Template-Library, pointers and dynamic memory management, algorithm efficiency, limits of computation, aggregation-composition modeling, and top-down design. The course concludes with a significant creative project.
