Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Solutions in C++

Welcome to the Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) repository! This repository contains a collection of OOP programs implemented in C++, demonstrating key concepts like classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation, and more. The programs are designed to help you understand and apply core OOP principles.

Prerequisites

To run the programs in this repository, make sure you have MinGW installed on your system. MinGW provides the necessary tools to compile and run C++ programs.

Installation of MinGW

You can follow this MinGW Installation Guide to set up MinGW on your PC.

Compile and Run the Code

To compile and run the C++ programs, follow these steps:

1. Open a terminal or command prompt in the folder containing the .cpp file.

2. Use the following command to compile the program:

   g++ filename.cpp -o filename_without_extension.exe

3. After compilation, run the program with:

   ./filename_without_extension.exe

OOP Program Structure

Each C++ program in this repository follows a consistent structure that demonstrates OOP principles. Key components you’ll find include:

• Classes and Objects: Encapsulate data and functions that operate on the data.
• Inheritance: Reuse existing code by creating new classes derived from existing ones.
• Polymorphism: Achieved through function overloading, operator overloading, and virtual functions.
• Constructors and Destructors: For object initialization and clean-up.
• Encapsulation: Private and public access specifiers are used to protect data.
• Abstraction: Simplification of complex reality by modeling classes appropriate to the problem.

Example Code Structure

Here is a typical template for C++ OOP programs in this repository:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

// Class definition
class ClassName {
    private:
        // Private data members

    public:
        // Constructor
        ClassName() {
            // Initialization code
        }

        // Member function
        void memberFunction() {
            // Function code
        }

        // Destructor
        ~ClassName() {
            // Clean-up code
        }
};

// Main function
int main() {
    ClassName obj;  // Object creation
    obj.memberFunction();  // Calling a member function

    return 0;
}
