Structured Data Type Structured Data Type
Definition: A structured data type is a type in which each value is a collection of component items. The entire collection has a single name each component can be accessed individually
Know what is meant by a structured data type. You do not need to create a struct or use one on the final exam.

Accessing struct Members
Dot ( period ) is the member selection operator.
After the struct type declaration, the various members can be used in your program only when they are preceded by a struct variable name and a dot.

Abstraction Abstraction
Abstraction is the separation of the essential qualities of an object from the details of how it works or is composed
It focuses on what, not how
It is necessary for managing large, complex software projects

Abstract Data Type (ADT)Abstract Data Type (ADT)
Is a programmer-defined type with a set of
values and allowable operations for the type.
Some ways to define a new C++ type are:
using struct
using class

ADT Implementation means ADT Implementation means
Choosing a specific data representation for the abstract data using data types that already exist (built-in or programmer-defined) Called “Data Members”
Writing functions (member functions) for each allowable operation

Information HidingInformation Hiding
Class implementation details are hidden from the client’s view. This is called information hiding.
Public functions of a class provide the interface between the client code and the class objects.

specification implementation
abstraction barrier

Benefits of information hidingBenefits of information hiding
Data and details can be concealed from the client of the abstraction.
Code can be changed without affecting the client because the specification and interface are unchanged.

Use of C++ data TypeUse of C++ data Type class class
Facilitates re-use of C++ code for an ADT
Software that uses the class is called a client
Variables of the class type are called class objects or class instances
Client code uses public member functions to handle its class objects
![Page 12: 1 SEN 909 OO Programming in C++ Final Exam SEN 909 OO Programming in C++ Final Exam Multiple choice, True/False and some minimal programming will be required](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033100/56649ec65503460f94bd0f76/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Using Using classclass
A class is a programmer-defined type whose components (called class members) can be variables or functions.
Class members are private by default. Compiler does not permit client code to access private class members.
Class members declared public form the interface between the client and the class.
In most classes, the private members contain data, and the public members are functions to manipulate that data.
![Page 13: 1 SEN 909 OO Programming in C++ Final Exam SEN 909 OO Programming in C++ Final Exam Multiple choice, True/False and some minimal programming will be required](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033100/56649ec65503460f94bd0f76/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Member functions categorized by taskMember functions categorized by task
CONSTRUCTOR -- a member function that actually creates a new instance and initialized some or all of its data members
ACCESS FUNCTION or OBSERVER -- a member function that can inspect (use but not modify) the data members of a class without changing their values. Such a function is declared with const following the parameter list in both the specification and the implementation files.

classclass type Declaration type Declaration
The class declaration creates a data type and names the members of the class.
It does not allocate memory for any variables of that type!
Client code still needs to declare class variables.

C++ Data Type C++ Data Type classclass represents an ADT represents an ADT
2 kinds of class members: data members and function members
Class members are private by default
Data members are generally private
Function members are generally declared public
Private class members can be accessed only by the class member functions (and friend functions), not by client code.

AggregateAggregate class class Operations Operations
Built-in operations valid on class objects are:
Member selection using dot ( . ) operator ,
Assignment to another class variable using ( = ),
Pass to a function as argument
(by value or by reference),
Return as value of a function
Other operations can be defined as class member functions

Scope Resolution Operator ( :: ) Scope Resolution Operator ( :: )
C++ programs typically use several class types
Different classes can have member functions with the same identifier, like Write( )
Member selection operator is used to determine the class whose member function Write( ) is invoked
currentTime .Write( ) ; // class TimeTypenumberZ .Write( ) ; // class ComplexNumberType
In the implementation file, the scope resolution operator is used in the heading before the function member’s name to specify its class
void TimeType :: Write ( ) const{ . . .
}

Class Constructors Class Constructors
A class constructor is a member function whose purpose is to initialize the private data members of a class object
The name of a constructor is always the name of the class, and there is no return type for the constructor
A class may have several constructors with different parameter lists. A constructor with no parameters is the default constructor
A constructor is implicitly invoked when a class object is declared--if there are parameters, their values are listed in parentheses in the declaration

For the Final ExamFor the Final Exam
Note: You will be asked to write a simple class, without using dynamic memory. (no Copy Constructor or Destructor writing will be required.)
You should know what a copy constructor and a destructor is in concept.

PointersPointers
• A pointer holds the memory address of another object.• Through the pointer we can indirectly manipulate the
referenced object.
Pointers are useful for
• Creating linked data structures such as linked lists,• management of dynamically allocated objects, and• as a function parameter type for passing large objects
such as arrays.

the address of a non-array variable can be obtained by using the address-of operator &
int x;float number;char ch;
cout << “Address of x is “ << &x << endl;
cout << “Address of number is “ << &number << endl;
cout << “Address of ch is “ << &ch << endl;

What is a pointer variable?What is a pointer variable?
A pointer variable is a variable whose value is the address of a location in memory.
to declare a pointer variable, you must specify the type of value that the pointer will point to, for example,
int* ptr; // ptr will hold the address of an int
char* q; // q will hold the address of a char

Memory LeakMemory Leak
A memory leak is the loss of available memory space that occurs when dynamic data is allocated but never deallocated.

Why is a destructor needed?Why is a destructor needed?
When a DynArray class variable goes out of scope, the memory space for data members size and pointer arr is deallocated.
But the dynamic array that arr points to is not automatically deallocated.
A class destructor is used to deallocate the dynamic memory pointed to by the data member.
