Object-Oriented Programming Using C++

 Course Objectives :

1. To introduce the basic Concepts of Object Oriented Programming (data types, operators and functions) using C++
2. To introduce concepts of Classes and Objects with the examples of C++ programming
3. To understand object oriented features such as Inheritance and Polymorphism
4. To use various object oriented concepts (exceptional handling) to solve different problems

Course Outcomes (CO)

• CO 1 Ability to have an in-depth knowledge of object oriented programming paradigm
• CO 2 To be able to develop basic C++ programming skills
• CO 3 To be able to apply various object oriented features using C++
• CO 4 Ability to have an understanding of generic programming & standard templates
