Study guide
In this lab you write C++ programs that apply OOP: marks entry and totalling with cin and cout, swapping with reference variables, largest of three, factorial, a bank account class with deposit, withdraw and display, an array of objects for several accounts, function overloading for triangle area, a Publication/Book/Tape inheritance hierarchy, a Student/Exam/Result chain, unary and binary operator overloading, virtual functions and abstract classes, and file read, write and copy. Practise explaining how each program demonstrates a specific OOP concept.
Why Object Oriented Programming using C++ Laboratory Matters
Writing real classes and hierarchies is what turns OOP theory into skill, and these programs are the standard exercises in practical exams and entry-level coding tests.
How to Prepare for Object Oriented Programming using C++ Laboratory
- Type and run every program yourself, then modify it to try variations.
- Prepare to explain which OOP feature each program demonstrates.
- Handle file errors in file programs, for example when a file does not exist.
Object Oriented Programming using C++ Laboratory: Frequently Asked Questions
What programs are asked in the C++ lab?
Classes and objects such as a bank account, inheritance hierarchies, operator overloading, virtual functions and abstract classes, and file handling programs.
