Summary of Introduction to C++ Programming (UNIT 1 & 2)

1. Programming Paradigms

- Procedural Programming: Focuses on functions and procedures to perform tasks. It utilizes

global data, which can make program maintenance challenging.

- Object-Oriented Programming (OOP): Centers around objects, which encapsulate data and

functions. Key OOP principles include encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism.

2. Core OOP Concepts

- Objects and Classes: Objects are instances of classes (blueprints), holding both data and

functions.

- Encapsulation: Combines data and methods in a single unit, restricting external access to data

directly, thus enhancing security and integrity.

- Inheritance: Allows creation of new classes derived from existing ones, promoting code reuse.

- Polymorphism: Supports multiple forms, allowing functions and operators to behave differently

based on input types and context.

3. Basic C++ Syntax

- Tokens: The smallest units of C++ code, including keywords, identifiers, constants, and

operators.

- Data Types: C++ provides primitive types (int, char, float) as well as derived and user-defined

types (e.g., arrays, structures, classes).

- Operators: C++ includes a variety of operators, such as arithmetic, relational, logical, and

assignment operators.

4. Control Structures

- Loops: Supports `for`, `while`, and `do-while` loops for repetitive tasks.

- Conditional Statements: Includes `if`, `if-else`, and `switch` structures to enable decision-making

in programs.

5. Input/Output
- C++ uses `cout` (output) and `cin` (input) with the `<<` and `>>` operators respectively to handle

basic input and output operations.

6. Sample Programs

- Several examples demonstrate basic C++ programming concepts, including the use of loops,

conditional statements, arithmetic operations, and simple program structures.

7. Common Programming Tasks

- Examples include tasks like temperature conversion, currency conversion, and basic arithmetic

operations using fractions. These programs reinforce C++ syntax and logic structures.

8. IDE Recommendations

- Instructions for compiling C++ programs using Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) like

Code::Blocks, Visual Studio, and GCC on various platforms are included to assist beginners.
