OOPs using C++
Subject Overview
OOPs using C++ moves students from procedural C into object-oriented C++ — classes and class declaration, constructors/destructors and member function definitions, inheritance and function/operator overloading, and polymorphism and file I/O. A 5-credit core theory paper.
