Credit hours 4
Prerequisite Programming Fundamentals
Instructor: Zafar Mahmood Khattak
Course This course provides in-depth coverage of object-oriented programming
Description principles and techniques using C++. Topics include classes, overloading,
data abstraction, information hiding, encapsulation, inheritance,
polymorphism, file processing, templates, exceptions, container classes. The
course briefly covers the mapping of UML design to C++ implementation and
object-oriented considerations for software design and reuse.
The course has a strong practical emphasis, and students will be required to
implement OO concepts in C++ during supervised laboratory sessions and in
unsupervised assignment work. In general, each class will consist of a one
and a half hour lecture, and a one and a half hour laboratory session, which
will be held weekly.
This course provides in-depth coverage of OOP using the C++ programming
Course goal: language. At the completion of this course the student should be comfortable
coding a program using C++. He or she will know the strengths and
weaknesses of the language.
Students will then be exposed to OO analysis and design. C++ syntax and its
idioms will be covered, with particular emphasis on how to program in C++
with an OO mindset.
Course objective  By the end of the course, students should be able to:

1. create class hierarchies using OOP design

2. understand and apply inheritance techniques to their programs
3. overload and override methods and understand the difference
4. create modular programs using accepted structured
programming
 Create and use UML diagrams
 Understand the strengths and weaknesses of OOP programming.
 Use files, both binary and text.

a) The teacher is responsible for the evaluation of work of the

students of his/her class and for the grades on the basis of such
evaluation.
b) The number and nature of tests and assignments depends on
Evaluation the nature of the course. However, there will be at least two
System tests, mid semester and final examination in addition to class
work.
c) Each course will follow the weight age as under:
Mid term 25%
Sessional work 25%
 Final term 50%
d) To pass a course, student must obtain ‘D’ grade (50% marks)
with at least 20% marks separately in (i) mid term + sessional
work and (ii) final term.
e) The final term examination will cover the entire course.
Marks in Letter Grade Numeric Value of Description
Percentage Grade
85 and above A+ 4.00 Exceptional
80-84 A 3.70 Outstanding
Grading System 75-79 B+ 3.40 Excellent

a) A minimum of 39 contact hour (70 %) are required by the

Class Attendance students to be eligible to sit in the final examination.
b) A candidate with less than 70% of the attendance shall be
dropped from the course.
