Course Description:
The goal of this course is to teach you object oriented programming in C++ and also to familiarize you
with the most commonly used libraries and OOP constructs. We will use C++ as the underlying language
in this course. C++ is among the most widely used and most successful languages for the programming of
large scale software applications.
Learning Objectives:
Upon successful completion of this course students should be able to:
• Understand a problem for a programmable task from its description
• Model a solution to a programmable task in terms of objects
• Translate the solution to a programmable task into an object-oriented
program in C++
• Understand and apply the C++ language constructs and tools in
programming
• Understand and use common C++ libraries in programming
Teaching-Learning Methodology:
Note: Select methodologies as per nature of the course.
