Spring Quarter 2000

This course continues the study of software development using an object-oriented approach and the C++ programming language. Students design, document, and implement software components and incorporate these components into larger software systems. A group project reinforces the application of the software design process in a team context. (prereq: CS-182) (3-3-4)

Objectives

Upon successful completion of this course, the student will:

• Understand the rationale for object-oriented design and programming.
• Understand data abstraction and abstract data types.
• Be familiar with UML class notation and use cases.
• Understand and be able to apply pointers and dynamic objects.
• Understand and be able to apply STL iterators.
• Be familiar with composition, inheritance, polymorphism, and C++ templates.
• Be able to design and implement simple C++ classes and class libraries.
• Be able to design small software systems using classification and use cases.
• Be able to document the design and implementation of small software systems.
• Be able to work in a team to create a small software system.
