Master C++ OOP | The Comprehensive Course

The 4 Pillars of OOP

[Visualizing the concepts of Encapsulation, Abstraction, Inheritance, and Polymorphism]

📦

Encapsulation

Bundling data and methods together and restricting direct access to object components.

🎭

Abstraction

Hiding complex implementation details and showing only the necessary features of an object.

🧬

Inheritance

Creating new classes based on existing ones to promote code reusability and hierarchy.

🔄

Polymorphism

The ability of different classes to be treated as instances of the same general class through virtual functions.

Learn Modern C++ Syntax

// Example: Polymorphism in C++
class Shape {
public:
    virtual void draw() {
        std::cout << "Drawing a generic shape" << std::endl;
    }
};

class Circle : public Shape {
public:
    void draw() override {
        std::cout << "Drawing a Circle" << std::endl;
    }
};

Course Curriculum

We utilize UML diagrams to visualize class relationships.

Module 1: Introduction to Classes & Objects

Moving from Structs to Classes, Constructors, Destructors, and the this pointer.

Module 2: Memory Management in OOP

Deep vs. Shallow copy, Move Semantics, and RAII principles.

Module 3: Inheritance & Composition

Base and Derived classes, Access Specifiers (public, private, protected), and "Is-a" vs "Has-a" relationships.

Module 4: Advanced Polymorphism

Virtual Tables (vptr/vtable), Pure Virtual Functions, and Abstract Base Classes.

Module 5: Operator Overloading & Templates

Making your classes behave like built-in types and writing generic code.
