C/C++ Programming IV: Advanced Programming with Objects

Expanding on serveral topics in C++ Programming III, this course encompasses object-oriented analysis, design, and programming.

Additionally, advanced memory management, stream and file I/O, persistence, multiple inheritance, advanced polymorphic programming, templates, STL libraries, C++ style, and efficiency will also be covered.

Course Highlights: Generic programming and the C++ standard library Exception, safety issues and techniques The transactional memory model Class design and inheritance Compilers, names and interfaces Memory management Traps, pitfalls and anti-idioms Functors and iterators Control flow and multiple inheritance Course Learning Outcomes: Gain a foundation for writing efficient, safe C++ code Learn how to use STL libraries Understand memory pitfalls in C++ Know how to expand the C++ memory model Utilize object-oriented for analysis and design Apply multiple inheritance to an application Understand how streams work See how to persist objects via streams Gain experience following C++ guidelines Identify potential bugs in code before they occur Software: Students must have access to program development tools.

Free IDE downloads students commonly use for this program include "Visual Studio Community" for Windows, "Xcode" for macOS, and "Code::Blocks" for Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Course Materials: The instructor will provide students with a pdf copy of his custom course reader to be used for the duration of this course.

There is no other textbook required for this course.

Course Typically Offered: Online in Winter, Summer, and Fall quarters.

Prerequisite: Must complete CSE-40477 C/C++ Programming III: Intermediate Programming with Objects or possess a solid understanding of the C++ programming language syntax and a high level understanding of the C++ standard library (streams, containers, iterators, and algorithms).

Next Step: After completing this course, consider taking CSE-40049 Data Structures and Algorithms in C/C++ to continue learning.
