The Object-Oriented Paradigm Using C++

Wiki-Based Learning

  • Purpose
    • Collaboration is a growing trend in today's practice of software development. You may visit Wikipedia to read about Ward Cunningham and collaboration in agile software development. IBM has developed a wiki-based product for corporate learning. During this semester, you will learn to use a wiki to collaborate with your fellow classmates as you build up your C++ programming skills. Your professor will play the role of an observer, a facilitator and a contributor.
  • Benefits
    • You will be better prepared to collaborate fully in the next course BTP300.
  • Guidelines of Community Practice
    • The key element in fostering a spirit of collaboration is that everyone is a contributor to the learning community. We will respect each other and interact with each other in a professional way.

Midterms Q & A

Learning C++/C Programming

You may develop your research skills by creating useful topics and contents here.

If you like to test compiling your codes with different compilers but don't border to install and run them individually, some IDEs are quite handy. E.g. Code::Blocks [4] (Other IDEs many also have this function). You can choose a specific compiler for each build in the IDE itself.
  • Is sizeof in C++ evaluated at compilation time or run time? [5]
  • ptrdiff_t is supposed to be used when doing pointer subtraction. But in this example,(demo program "pointerSubtraction.cpp" on matrix.senecac.on.ca) an int will work just fine storing the subtraction result. Reason:[6] (Yiqi Liu)
  • The Function Pointer Tutorials [7]
  • Function pointer (Wikipedia) [8]
  • C++ Vector class template [9]
  • C++ List class template (examples) [10]
