Graduate Programs in Software

Who Should Attend

This workshop is aimed at programmers, analysts, and software engineers who want to develop applications in C++. This course assumes that the participant is already familiar with another procedural language and is thoroughly familiary with variables, arrays, control structures, functions, and parameter passing. No knowledge or experience in either the C or the C++ programming language or object-oriented methodology is assumed.

Workshop Instructor

Dr. Thomas P. Sturm

Dr. Sturm has been a professor of Computer Science at the University of St. Thomas since 1971. He has also served as a software specialist at 3M and has consulted for a wide variety of Twin Cities' organizations. He has conducted C and C++ workshops using a variety of compilers on both mini and microcomputers. Dr. Sturm has also conducted courses in a wide variety of other programming languages, CASE tools, and computer science areas.

C++ Programming Hands-On Short Course

January 2- 23, 1996, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 5:30 P.M. to 9:00 P.M.

C++ is an extension to the C programming language that allows better programming as well as a language that facilitates object-oriented programming. C++ provides numerous improvements to the C programming language, such as enforcing the proper passing of parameters to functions. C++ allows developers to encapsulate rules, procedures, and processes into a single point of change and control.

There are a number of novel concepts introduced by C++. Migration to C++ from existing programs in any language requires careful attention to detail in ways uncommon to other programming languages. This can be a source of considerable frustration even for experienced programmers trying to learn the C++ language on their own.

Beginnings of C++

Philosophy of C++; Justification for use; Using a development environment (Borland Turbo C++ will be used); Variables, constants, and casts; Input/Output basics.

Features of C++

Functions and function prototypes; User and library functions; Arithmetic operators, expressions, control structures; Pointers; Compiler options and error checking; References (function call by reference); Overloading functions and operators

Classes and Objects

Object-oriented programming; Class definition; Overloading class operators; Overloading class functions; Constructors and destructors;

Interaction between Classes

Header files; Inline functions; Friends; Inheritance; Polymorphism; Virtual functions

I/O and Library Functions

Stream input/output; File I/O; Character and string functions; Mathematical functions

Advanced Features

Function templates; Exception handling; Multiple inheritance; Class libraries

Technical Seminar

Graduate Programs in Software

C++ Programming

A three-day seminar

Tuesday through Thursday October 26 through 28, 1993

8 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

University of St. Thomas - Minneapolis Campus

1000 Lasalle Avenue - Room 342/344

C++ is an extension to the powerful, efficient, and portable C language. C++ provides numerous improvements to the C programming language, such as enforcing the proper passing of parameters to functions. C++ allows developers to encapsulate rules, procedures, and processes into a single point of change and control. These and other features of C++ allow for significant improvements in programmer productivity. The number of major system and application programs written in C++ has grown rapidly in recent years.

Hands-on sessions will be conducted on IBM PS/2's using Borland's Turbo C++ compiler, but the code written will run in a wide variety of environments. Each participant will receive a disk containing a set of demonstration programs, as well as a set of printed classroom materials. The course will consist of approximately 75% lecture, 25% hands-on laboratory.

This course is aimed at programmers, analysts, and software engineers who are already experienced in the C programming language. This course assumes that the participant has at least the equivalent of a year of full-time programming experience in C and is thoroughly familiar with functions, parameter passing, pointers, and structures. No knowledge or experience in the C++ programming language, use of object-oriented methodology, or exposure to artificial intelligence is assumed. (A four day technical seminar in the C programming language is offered separately for those without the prerequisite experience in C programming.)

By the end of the course, qualified and diligent participants will be able to:

• understand the philosophy of C++

• write short programs and supporting functions, and header files in C++

• understand good, safe, and defensive programming procedures as they pertain to C++

• read and modify existing well-written C++

• understand the object-oriented extensions to C provided by C++

• understand the concepts of overloading, inheritance, and polymorphism

During the seminar, participants will be given the opportunity to:

• write stream processing functions

• use common library functions

• write numeric processing functions

• migrate existing C programs to C++

• create and use object classes in C++

• overload functions in C++

• write functions to perform input/output to terminal and files

Getting Rid of Viruses

If scan for viruses shows a virus, or you suspect one:

1. Take a floppy

2. Format /s from a known good machine

3. Go to F-PROT directory, copy all files

4. Copy FDISK.COM and SYS.COM from DOS directory

5. Write protect floppy

6. Boot bad machine from this floppy (totally cold after powering down)

7. Run F-PROT SCAN

8. Run F-PROT CLEAN, then check as noted below

8a. For STONED NO INT virus, use FDISK /STATUS

If 100% partitioned, OK

If < 100% partitioned, need to re-format disk

FDISK /MBR fixes boot sector for boot sector viruses

For FORMS virus, do a SYS C:
