Introduction to C++
• Readings: 1.1-1.3, 1.9-1.13, 1.16-1.18, 1.21-1.22
• C++
– Bjarne Stroustrup (Bell Labs, 1979)
– started as extension to C (macros and variables)
– added new useful, features
– nowadays a language of its own
– C++ (the next thing after C, though wouldn’t ++C be
more appropriate?)

Object-Oriented Programming
• First-class objects - atomic types in C
– int, float, char
– have:
• values
• sets of operations that can be applied to them
– how represented irrelevant to how they are manipulated
• Other objects - structures in C
– cannot be printed
– do not have operations associated with them (at least,
not directly)

Object-Oriented Idea
• Make all objects, whether C-defined or user-
defined, first-class objects
• For C++ structures (called classes) allow:
– functions to be associated with the class
– only allow certain functions to access the internals of
the class
– allow the user to re-define existing functions (for
example, input and output) to work on class

Classes of Objects in C++
• Classes
– similar to structures in C (in fact, you can can still use
the struct definition)
– have fields corresponding to fields of a structure in C
(similar to variables)
– have fields corresponding to functions in C (functions
that can be applied to that structure)
– some fields are accessible by everyone, some not (data
hiding)
– some fields shared by the entire class

Instances of Classes in C++
• A class in C++ is like a type in C
• Variables created of a particular class are instances
of that class
• Variables have values for fields of the class
• Class example: Student
– has name, id, gpa, etc. fields that store values
– has functions, changeGPA, addCredits, that can be
applied to instances of that class
• Instance examples: John Doe, Jane Doe
– each with their own values for the fields of the class

Comments in C++
• Can use C form of comments /* A Comment */
• Can also use // form:
– when // encountered, remainder of line ignored
– works only on that line
• Examples:
void main() {
int I; // Variable used in loops
char C; // No comment comment

Variable Declarations
• In C++, variable declarations are not restricted to
the beginnings of blocks (before any code)
– you may interleave declarations/statements as needed
– it is still good style to have declarations first
• Example
void main() {
int I = 5;
printf(“Please enter J: “);
int J; // Not declared at the start
scanf(“%d”,&J);

Counter Variables in a For Loop
• You can declare the variable(s) used in a for loop
in the initialization section of the for loop
– good when counter used in for loop only exists in for
loop (variable is throw-away)
• Example
for (int I = 0; I < 5; I++)
printf(“%dn”,I);
• Variable exists only during for loop (goes away
when loop ends)

Initializing Global Variables
• Not restricted to using constant literal values in
initializing global variables, can use any evaluable
expression
• Example:
int rows = 5;
int cols = 6;
int size = rows * cols;
void main() {
...

Initializing Array Elements
• When giving a list of initial array values in C++,
you can use expressions that have to be evaluated
• Values calculated at run-time before initialization
done
• Example:
void main() {
int n1, n2, n3;
int *nptr[] = { &n1, &n2, &n3 };

void*
• In C it is legal to cast other pointers to and from a
void *
• In C++ this is an error, to cast you should use an
explicit casting command
• Example:
int N;
int *P = &N;
void *Q = P; // illegal in C++
void *R = (void *) P; // ok

NULL in C++
• C++ does not use the value NULL, instead NULL
is always 0 in C++, so we simply use 0
• Example:
int *P = 0; // equivalent to
// setting P to NULL
• Can check for a 0 pointer as if true/false:
if (!P) // P is 0 (NULL)
...
else // P is not 0 (non-NULL)
...

Tags and struct
• When using struct command in C++ (and for other
tagged types), can create type using tag format and
not use tag in variable declaration:
struct MyType {
int A;
float B;
};
MyType V;

enum in C++
• Enumerated types not directly represented as
integers in C++
– certain operations that are legal in C do not work in
C++
• Example:
void main() {
enum Color { red, blue, green };
Color c = red;
c = blue;
c = 1; // Error in C++
++c; // Error in C++

bool
• C has no explicit type for true/false values
• C++ introduces type bool (later versions of C++)
– also adds two new bool literal constants true (1) and
false (0)
• Other integral types (int, char, etc.) are implicitly
converted to bool when appropriate
– non-zero values are converted to true
– zero values are converted to false

bool operations
• Operators requiring bool value(s) and producing a
bool value:
&& (And), || (Or), ! (Not)
• Relational operators (==, !=, <, >, <=, >=) produce
bool values
• Some statements expect expressions that produce
bool values:
if (boolean_expression)
while (boolean_expression)
do … while (boolean_expression)
for ( ; boolean_expression; )
