OOP Finals

Two common programming paradigms are discussed - structural (procedural) and object-oriented. Structural programming focuses on functions and data, while object-oriented programming focuses on objects, their operations, and passing messages between objects. Key features of object-oriented programming languages include data abstraction, inheritance, and dynamic binding of operations to objects. The document then discusses C++ data types, classes, objects, defining classes and member functions, and access control in classes. A class defines common properties and behaviors for a set of objects, while an object is an instance of a class with its own copy of data members.

Object-Oriented Programming-Introduction to Classes


Class Definition
Class Examples
Objects

Classes & Objects


The class is the cornerstone of C++
It gives the C++ its identity from C
It makes possible encapsulation, data hiding and
inheritance

Class:
Consists of both data and methods
Defines properties and behavior of a set of entities

Object:
An instance of a class
A variable identified by a unique name
5

Classes & Objects


Rectangle r1;
Rectangle r2;
Rectangle r3;

class Rectangle
{
private:
int width;
int length;
public:
void set(int w, int l);
int area();
};

int a;
6

Define a Class Type


Header

class class_name
{
permission_label:
member;
Body
permission_label:
member;
...
};

class Rectangle
{
private:
int width;
int length;
public:
void set(int w, int l);
int area();
};
7

Class Definition-Data Members


Abstract the common attributes of a group of
entities, their values determine the state of an
object
Can be of any type, built-in or user-defined
non-static data member
Each class object has its own copy
Cannot be initialized explicitly in the class body
Can be initialized with member function, or class
constructor

static data member


Acts as a global object, part of a class, not part of an
object of that class
One copy per class type, not one copy per object
Can be initialized explicitly in the class body

Static Data Member


class Rectangle
{
private:
int width;
int length;
static int count;
public:
void set(int w, int l);
int area();
};

Rectangle r1;
Rectangle r2;
Rectangle r3;

Class Definition Member Functions


Used to
access the values of the data members (accessor)
perform operations on the data members
(implementor)

Are declared inside the class body, in the same


way as declaring a function
Their definition can be placed inside the class
body, or outside the class body
Can access both public and private members of
the class
Can be referred to using dot or arrow member
access operator
10

Define a Member Function


class Rectangle
{
private:
int width, length;
public:
void set (int w, int l);
int area() {return width*length; }
};

inline
r1.set(5,8);
rp->set(8,10);

class name

member function name

void Rectangle :: set (int w, int l)


{
width = w;
length = l;
scope operator
}

11

Class Definition Member Functions


static member function
const member function
declaration
return_type func_name (para_list) const;

definition
return_type func_name (para_list) const { }
return_type class_name :: func_name (para_list) const { }

Makes no modification about the data members (safe


function)
It is illegal for a const member function to modify a
class data member
12

Const Member Function


class Time
{
private :
int hrs, mins, secs ;

function declaration

public :
void

Write ( ) const ;

function definition

};

void Time :: Write( ) const


{
cout <<hrs << : << mins << : << secs << endl;
}
13

Class Definition - Access Control


Information hiding
To prevent the internal representation from direct
access from outside the class

Access Specifiers
public
may be accessible from anywhere within a program

private
may be accessed only by the member functions, and
friends of this class, not open for nonmember functions

protected
acts as public for derived classes (virtual)
behaves as private for the rest of the program

Difference between classes and structs in


C++
the default access specifier is private in classes
the default access specifier is public in structs

14

class Time Specification


class Time
{
public :
void
void
void
Time
Time

Set ( int hours , int minutes , int seconds ) ;


Increment ( ) ;
Write ( ) const ;
( int initHrs, int initMins, int initSecs ) ; // constructor
();
// default constructor

private :
int
int
int
};

hrs ;
mins ;
secs ;

Class Definition - Access Control


The default access specifier is private
The data members are usually private or protected
A private member function is a helper, may only be
accessed by another member function of the same
class (exception friend function)
The public member functions are part of the class
interface
Each access control section is optional,
repeatable, and sections may occur in any order

17

Objects
Object:
a variable or an instance of a class

Declaration of an Object
Initiation of an Object

18

What is an object?
OBJECT
Operations
Data

set of methods
(public member functions)
internal state
(values of private data members)

19

Declaration of an Object
class Rectangle
{
private:
int width;
int length;
public:
void set(int w, int l);
int area();
};

main()
{
Rectangle r1;
Rectangle r2;
r1.set(5, 8);
cout<<r1.area()<<endl;
r2.set(8,10);
cout<<r2.area()<<endl;
}
20

Another Example
#include <iostream.h>

// member function definitions

class circle
{
private:
double radius;

void circle::store(double r)
{
radius = r;
}
double circle::area(void)
{
return 3.14*radius*radius;
}
void circle::display(void)
{
cout << r = << radius << endl;
}

public:
void store(double);
double area(void);
void display(void);
};

int main(void) {
circle c; // an object of circle class
c.store(5.0);
cout << "The area of circle c is " << c.area() << endl;
c.display();
}

21

Take Home Message


Class can be considered as a userdefined data type, while an object is just a
variable of certain class.
There are three parts in the definition of a
class: data members, member functions,
and access control.
