Objectives On completion of this subject students should understand the application of the object-oriented paradigm to the design and implementation of computer software; be able to implement an object-oriented design in either of two object-oriented programming languages, such as Eiffel and C++; be able to make appropriate use of object-oriented concepts and techniques, including data abstraction, polymorphism, multiple inheritance and exception-handling; develop programs with a view to reusability of code through the development of generic data types and the building of class libraries.
Synopsis The concepts of classes and objects and data and module encapsulation; use of the object-oriented paradigm to develop programs incorporating polymorphism, static and dynamic binding, multiple inheritance, exception handling and generic data types. Implementation in two object-oriented program languages, such as Eiffel and C++.
