Object-Oriented Programming

Recommended Prerequisites

Advanced knowledge of a procedural programming language and  knowledge of data structures.

Teaching Methods

Two types of classes: expository style with examples and exercises to apply the material being taught. Computational Laboratory: with practice of C++ implementing programming problems.

Learning Outcomes

The student should be able to model computational problems using a methodological approach with abstraction and modularity in its focus, the object-oriented methodology. The student should also learn an OOP programming language.

The main competencies to be developed are: skills in computational tools; generalisation and abstraction; be able to formulate an solve new problems; implementation of mathematical models in real live situations; logical reasoning; team work; personal initiative; use of the Internet as a source of information; imagination and creativity.

Work Placement(s)

No

Syllabus

Fundamentals concepts about OOP. Classes, objects, methods, attributes, messages. Classes relationship, polymorphism, generic classes. The fundamentals of the C++ OOP programming language.
