Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a core concept in modern C++ development, used extensively in game development, software engineering, and high-performance applications. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to class development in C++, guiding learners through best practices for designing modular, reusable, and maintainable code.
Participants will begin by exploring the fundamentals of classes and objects, focusing on encapsulation and data abstraction. The course then covers constructors and destructors, operator overloading, and advanced OOP principles like inheritance, polymorphism, and virtual functions. Additionally, learners will work with dynamic memory allocation and learn how to manage resources efficiently.
By the end of the course, learners will be able to design scalable C++ programs, making them well-prepared for game development, system programming, and software engineering roles.
