Object-oriented programming in C++ is not automatic – it is crucial to understand OO concepts and how they map to both C++ language features and OOP techniques. Distinguishing your code by utilizing well-tested, creative solutions, which can be found in popular design patterns, is crucial in today's marketplace. This book will help you to harness OOP in C++ to write better code. Starting with the essential C++ features, which serve as building blocks for the key chapters, this book focuses on explaining fundamental object-oriented concepts and shows you how to implement them in C++. With the help of practical code examples and diagrams, you'll learn how and why things work. The book's coverage furthers your C++ repertoire by including templates, exceptions, operator overloading, STL, and OO component testing. You'll discover popular design patterns with in-depth examples and understand how to use them as effective programming solutions to solve recurring OOP problems. By the end of this book, you'll be able to employ essential and advanced OOP concepts to create enduring and robust software. Programmers wanting to utilize C++ for OOP will find this book essential to understand how to implement OO designs in C++ through both language features and refined programming techniques while creating robust and easily maintainable code. This OOP book assumes prior programming experience; however, if you have limited or no prior C++ experience, the early chapters will help you learn essential C++ skills to serve as the basis for the many OOP sections, advanced features, and design patterns ER -
