ITC418 C++ Programming Techniques (8)
Abstract|
This subject provides a foundation in C++ programming for students studying computer science related software development. Sound programming techniques are established and emphasised early to encourage students to create accurate, efficient and maintainable software. The subject incorporates the use of standard control structures, data and memory management and includes object-based techniques and some object-oriented techniques. |

Learning OutcomesUpon successful completion of this subject, students should:
- be able to correctly use C++ syntax, flow of control structures and primitive data types;
- be able to design a C++ program using objected-oriented techniques such as inheritance;
- be able to design, implement and invoke custom written functions;
- be able to deploy several standard function libraries and class libraries in programs;
- be able to design and implement straightforward classes and instantiate these classes;
- be able to create and use pointers and references to data and dynamically allocate and deallocate data and objects;
- be able to design and implement container classes using linear data structures;
- be able to use these techniques to write software in C++ to solve modest structured and object-based problems.
