OOP_Lecture_8(Operator Overloading and Freind Fun)

The lecture covers Operator Overloading and Friend Functions in Object Oriented Programming, detailing how to overload unary and binary operators, as well as the subscript operator. It explains the concept of friend functions that allow non-member functions to access private and public data members of a class. Additionally, it outlines restrictions on operator overloading, including operators that cannot be overloaded and limitations on changing operator precedence and associativity.

Object Oriented Programming (OOP)

------------------------------------------------------
Lecture Topic: Operator Overloading and Friend Function
------------------------------------------------------
Instructor: Muhammad Aizaz Akmal
------------------------------------------------------
Lecture Oultine
0:Recape of previous Lecture
1:Operator Overloading
-What is operator Overloding
-Function Overlaod(function with same name but different parameter list)
void fun(int i);
void fun(string name);
void fun(int i, float j);
void fun(int i, float j);//Error redefination of function
-default operator support on object
asignment operator (=), dot operator (.)
Distance d1(10,2.5);
Distance d2(20,3.9);
Distance d3 = d2 + d1;
int i,j,k;
i=5;
j=10;
k=i+j;
-Operator Overloading is facility that allow the programmar to perform
operator on the object according to provided specification.

-Uniary Operator Overload


-- (prefix,postfix), ++(prefix, postfix)

-How to overlaod operator

returntype operator # (); //# denote any uniary opeator

void operator ++()


{
++inch;
++feet;
}

-How to call overloaded operator;

Distance d1(10,2.3);
++d1;

-Binary Operator Overload

Arithmeti Operator(+,-,*,/,%), Relational Operator (<,>,<=,>=,!=,==)


Logical Operator(&&,||)

returntype operator # (Datatype Obj); //# denote any binary opeator


d3 = d1+d2 // d1.operator+(d2)

Distance operator+(Distance tobj)


{
Distance temp;
temp.feet= feet + tobj.feet;
temp.inch= inch + tobj.inch;
return temp;
}

bool operator==(Distance tobj)


{

if ((feet == tobj.feet) && (inch == tobj.inch))


return true;
else
return false;
}

-Subsript Operator Overload([])

returntype& operator[](int index);

int& operator[](int i)
{
if(i>=size)
{
cout<<"index out of bound"<<endl;
return NULL;
}
else
return arr[i];
}

2:Friend Function
- Non member function that allowed to access the data members of class
both public and private after declaring them as a freind in a class.

friend void nonMemDisplay(Distance td);

void nonMemDisplay(Distance td)


{
td.feet=10; //private //error
td.display();
}
string s1="Hello";
string s2="World";
string s3=s1+s2; //Hello World
s1<s2 //bool
s1==s2 //bool
s1*s2

3:Operator overlaod as non member of class


-Insertion Operator <<

ostream& operator<<(ostream &out, ClassType &obj);

friend ostream& operator<<(ostream &out, Distance &td);

ostream& operator<<(ostream &out, Distance &td)


{
out<<"Distance is: "<<td.feet <<"\'-" <<td.inch <<"\""<<endl;
return out;
}
-Extraction Operator >>
istream& operator>>(istream &in, ClassType &obj);

friend istream& operator>> (istream &in, Distance &td);


istream& operator>>(istream &in, Distance &td)
{
cout<<"Enter the value of feet"
in>>td.feet;
cout<<"Enter the value of inch"
in>>td.inch;
return in;
}
4:Restriction on Operator Overloading
The operator that can't be overlaod
dot(.), scoperesulation operator (::), sizeof, ternary operator ?:, .*
- overload only existing operator except above mentioned.
- Can't change the predence of operator
- Can't change the associativity of operator.
