OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING IN C++

OPTIONAL COURSE (for 4th Semester Students of ECE & ELE only)

Object Oriented Programming Systems are becoming the accepted way of developing new software in every area .This course will cover the C++ language - one of the most popular Object Oriented Programming Language in use in the world today.

This course will be a prerequisite for the course "WINDOWS APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT USING VC++".

Objects and Classes : Specifying and using classes, constructors and destructors, objects as function arguments , memory considerations for objects .

Operator Overloading : Overloading unary and binary operators, data conversion, pitfalls of operator overloading and conversion .

Inheritance : Derived and base classes, class hierarchies, public and private inheritance, classes within classes, problems and ambiguity in inheritance .

Functions : Virtual Functions , static function, friend functions

Files and Streams : Stream class hierarchy , object I/O, I/O with multiple objects

Development of Object Oriented Programs: creating large programs using class libraries.

PROGRAMMING IN ANSI COBOL

OPTIONAL COURSE (for 5th Semester Students only)

COBOL is one of the most widely used language in business applications and one of the oldest programming languages .The renewed interest in this language has been spurred by the Y2K problem wherein much of the old COBOL software either has to be modified , maintained or rewritten in a new language. COBOL software maintenance accounts for a substantial percentage of the work subcontracted to Indian software firms. You may have noticed that many job ads are specifying COBOL skills .Since the Y2K work is expected to continue for at least 4-5 years beyond the year 2000 , it is our belief that this course will help students aspiring to a career in software .

This course aims at giving Students an in-depth understanding of the COBOL language so that they can maintain/develop COBOL software.
