# Lecture 3 --- Classes
|
||
|
||
- Classes in C++; Types and defining new types; Example: A Date class;
|
||
- Class declaration: member variables and member functions; Using the class member functions;
|
||
- Member function implementation; Class scope; Classes vs. structs; Designing classes;
|
||
- Defining a custom sort of class instances.
|
||
|
||
## 3.1 Types and Defining New Types
|
||
|
||
- Every C++ object has a type (e.g., integers, doubles, strings, and vectors, etc., including custom types); and a class is a custom data type, also known as a user-defined data type.
|
||
– The type tells us what the data means and what operations can be performed on the data.
|
||
|
||
## 3.2 C++ Classes
|
||
|
||
- A C++ class group together variables and functions that operate on those variables. We call these variables *member variables*, and we call these functions *member functions*.
|
||
|
||
- A C++ class consists of
|
||
|
||
– a collection of member variables, usually private, and
|
||
– a collection of member functions, usually public, which operate on these variables.
|
||
|
||
- public member functions can be accessed directly from outside the class,
|
||
- private member functions and member variables can only be accessed indirectly from outside the class, through public member functions.
