Topical Information

Since the last exam, we've talked about:

• concepts of object-oriented programming
• declaring class objects and calling class methods with them
• basic class design principles: what should always be included in a class
• private vs. public access areas of a class
• mutators and accessors
• constructors
• inlineing class methods
• RVO to avoid copy construction
• member initialization lists for constructors
• marking class methods const
• putting a class into a library

And any of that could be on this exam in the credit section.

• method call chaining
• composition of classes
• leeways when compiling classes
