OVERVIEW

Object-oriented programming is a current programming paradigm that allows the efficient development of software modules. These modules are the basis of multiple applications used in the biomedical field. The reference language is C ++.

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

This course aims to provide students with the methodologies and tools to design and develop software applications according to efficiency and productivity criteria by  using object-oriented programming in C ++

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

Attendance and active participation in the proposed training activities (lectures and exercises) and individual study will enable the student to:

know the theoretical and practical tools of object-oriented programming;

use classes and objects in the implementation of programs by using the paradigms of object oriented programming;

abstract the algorithms and data structures, which can be useful for a biomedical engineer;

develop the skills to operationally apply the concepts learned.

PREREQUISITES

Procedural programming.

TEACHING METHODS

Lessons and examples in the classroom (online as a function of the rules ). Exercises in C ++ to be carried out during the semester and uploaded  to  Aulaweb.

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

Review of procedural C ++ and dynamic allocation
Algorithms: search and sorting
Object-oriented programming and abstract data types
Classes and objects; const and static qualifiers; reference; friend
Namespace
Data structures: node-based linked list and array-based stack
Operator overloading
Copy constructor and assignment operator (classes with dynamic memory)
Inheritance and polymorphism
Template
Examples to support the lessons
Programming labs

EXAMS

EXAM DESCRIPTION

Written and oral exam. The exam  is related to the topics presented during the semester: it consists of quiz and programming exercises that the student must solve during the exam. Examples of such exercises were provided during class and practice hours.

ASSESSMENT METHODS

Details on how to prepare for the exam and the degree of depth of each topic will be given during the lessons. The written exam will verify the actual acquisition of object oriented programming knowledge learned during the semester: at the end of the course the student will have to demonstrate to know how to develop object oriented programs using the characteristics of the C ++ language.
