Current Catalog This course teaches object-oriented programming to those who have
Description learnt basic programming concepts and are ready to learn in-depth
programming. It focuses on object-oriented programming using C++.
The main concepts discussed are: Objects, Data Abstraction, Data
Encapsulation, Polymorphism, and Inheritance. We teach the C++
language constructs that are used to implement these concepts. For
example, Classes, Overloaded Operators, Overridden Methods,
Virtual Functions, and Templates.
This module will provide the students with a solid theoretical
Course Objectives understanding of, as well as practical skills in, object-oriented
programming. Practical skills will be learnt using the C++
programming language. The primary aim of the module is to enable
 the students to tackle complex programming problems, making good
use of the object-oriented programming paradigm to simplify the
design and implementation process. Laboratory sessions and
tutorials will be provided to encourage acquisition of practical
problem-solving skills.

Course Learning After completion of this course, student will be able to:
Outcomes (CLO) 1. Identify importance of object-oriented programming and
difference between structured oriented and object-oriented
programming features.
2. Able to make use of objects and classes for developing
programs.
3. Able to use various object-oriented concepts to solve different
problems.
4. Describe the meaning of the object-oriented paradigm, and
create class hierarchies using the object-oriented design
process
5. Design and implement C++ programs for complex problems,
making good use of the features of the language such as
classes, inheritance and templates

 Laboratory Outline
Lab Number Topic Objective
1 Revision Lab The basic purpose of this laboratory is revision of
some preliminary concepts of C++ that has been
covered in the course of Introduction to
Computing and Programming Fundamentals. Its
objective is to:
• Recall students previously learned basic
concepts.
• Revision of arrays and functions.
• Understanding problem statements and
designing an appropriate solution.

2 Setters, Getters, Constructor, • Separate Interface from implementation

Destructor (working in 3 different files)
• Creating Setters and Getters of each
attribute.
• Creating Constructors to initialize all the
attributes of the class
• Destructor’s usage

3 Constructors and Destructor Making students familiarize with the concepts of

constructor, overloaded constructor, copy
constructor and destructor.

4 Object as parameter and Return Making students familiarize with the concepts of
Type object passed as parameter and return type.

5 Constant functions, parameters Making students familiarize with the concepts of

& attributes constants.

6 Static Members and Attributes Making students familiarize with the concepts of
static; Singleton Design Pattern
7 Operator Overloading Overloading operators =, +, -, *, /, =, = =, >=, []
8 Has a relationship Introduction to the concept of composition and
differentiating between composition and
aggregation

11 Polymorphism Working on polymorphism using different
examples. Working with virtual functions and
virtual destructors
12 Abstract Class Working with abstract classes and pure virtual
functions
