DESCRIPTIVES
Q.1 Explain the following. (16)
Ans:(i) Conversion from Class to Basic Type: We know that conversion from a basic to class
type can be easily done with the help of constructors. The conversion from class to basic type is
indeed not that easy as it cannot be done using constructors. for this conversion we need to
define an overloaded casting operator. This is usually referred to as a conversion function. The
syntax for this is as follows:
The above function shall convert a class type data to typename.
A conversion function must follow the following 3 rules:
a. It cannot have a return type
b. It has to be declared inside a class.
c. It cannot have any arguments.
(ii)File pointers: we need to have file pointers viz. input pointer and output pointer. File
pointers are required in order to navigate through the file while reading or writing. There are
certain default actions of the input and the output pointer. When we open a file in read only
mode, the input pointer is by default set at the beginning. When we open a file in write only
mode, the existing contents are deleted and the file pointer is attached in the beginning.
C++ also provides us with the facility to control the file pointer by ourselves. For this, the
following functions are supported by stream classes: seekg(), seekp(), tellg(), tellp().
(iii) Function prototyping is used to describe the details of the function. It tells the compiler
about the number of arguments, the type of arguments, and the type of the return values. It
some what provides the compiler with a template that is used when declaring and defining a
function. When a function is invoked, the compiler carries out the matching process in which it
matches the declaration of the function with the arguments passed and the return type. In C++,
function prototype was made compulsory but ANSI C makes it optional. The syntax is as
follows:
type function-name(argument-list);
example int func(int a, int b, int c);
(iv)Overload resolution: When we overload a function, the function prototypes are matched
by the compiler. The best match is found using the following steps.
a. The compiler first matches that prototype which has the exactly same types of actual
arguments.
b. If an exact match is not found by the first resolution, the integral promotions to the actual
arguments are used like char to int, float to double.
c. When both the above methods fail, the built in conversions to the actual arguments are used
like long square (long n).
d. If all the above steps do not help the compiler find a unique match, then the compiler uses
the user defined convergence, in combination with integral promotions and built in
conversions.

2 5.0000e-01 1.500

{
float x,y,z;
x=1.0000e+00;
y=5.0000e-01;

cout.precision(3);
cout.setf(ios::fixed,ios::floatfield);
cout<<x<<'\n';
cout<<y<<'\n';
cout<<z<<'\n';
}
Q.3 What are friend functions? Explain there characteristics with a suitable example.
(6)
Ans: We generally have a belief that a non member function cannot access the private data
member of the class. But this is made possible using a friend function. A friend function is that
which does not belong to the class still has complete access to the private data members of the
class. We simply need to declare the function inside the class using the keyword “friend”. The
syntax for declaring the friend function is as follows:
class demo
{
public:
friend void func (void);
}
The characteristics of a friend function are as follows.
• It can be declared both in the private and the public part of the class without altering the
meaning.
• It is not called using the object of the class.
• To access the data members of the class, it needs to use the object name, the dot operator
and the data member’s name. example obj.xyz
• It is invoked like a normal function.
• It does not belong to the class
An example program is as follows:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class one;
2
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
class two
{
int a;
public:
void setvalue(int n){a=n;}
friend void max(two,one);
};
class one
{
int b;
public:
void setvalue(int n){b=n;}
friend void max(two,one);
};
int main()
{
one obj1;
obj1.setvalue(5);
two obj2;
obj2.setvalue(10);
max(obj2,obj1);
return 0;
}
Q.4 write a program to overload the operator ‘+’ for complex numbers. (7)
Ans:
To perform complex number addition using operator overloading.
# include <iostream.h>
# include <conio.h>
class complex {

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
float r, i;
public:
complex()
{
r=i=0;
}
void getdata()
{
cout<<”R.P”;
cin>>r;
cout<<”I.P”;
cin>>i;
}
void outdata (char*msg)
{
cout<<endl<,msg;
cout<<”(“<<r;
cout<<”+j” <<i<<”)”;
}
Complex operator+(Complex);
};
Complex complex::Operator+(Complex(2))
{
complex temp;
temp.r=r+c2.r;
temp.i=I=c2.i;
return(temp);
}
void main()
{
clrscr();
complex c1, c2, c3;
cout<<”Enter 2 complex no: “<<endl;
cl.getdta();
c2.getdata();
c3=c1+c2;
c3.outdata (“The result is :”);
getch();
}
OUTPUT
Enter 2 complex no: R.P: 2 I.P: 2 R.p: 2 I.P:2
The result is: 4+j4
RESULT
Thus the complex number addition has been done using operator overloading

Q.12 In the following output, the following flag constants are used with the stream member
function setf. What effect does each have
(i) ios::fixed
(ii) ios::scientific
(iii) ios::showpoint
(iv) ios::showpos
(v) ios::right
(vi) ios::left (6)
Ans: A two argument version of setf() is used to set flag which is a member of a group of flags.
The second argument specifies the group and is a bitwise OR of all the flags in the group. The
setfO, a member function of the ios class, can provide answers to these and other formatting
questions. The setfO (setf stands for set flags) function can be us follows:
cout.setf(argl,arg2)
The argl is one of the formatting flags defined in the class ios. The formatting flag Spi the
format action required for the output. Another ios constant, arg2, known as bi specifies the
group to which the formatting flag belongs.
There are three bit and each has a group of format flags which are mutually exclusive
Examples:
15
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
cout.setf(ios::1eft, ios::adjustfied);
cout.setf(ios::scientific, ios::floatfield);
Note that the first argument should be one of the group members of the second argument.
The Setf() can be used with the flag ios::showpoint as a single argument to achieve this form of
output. For example
Cout.setf(ios::showpoint);
Would cause cout to display trailing zeros and trailing decimal point.
Similarly, a plus sign can be printed a positive number using the following statement:
Cout.setf(ios::showpos);set to selection
selection ios::ingroup Meaning
-----------------------------------------------------------
ios::left ios::adjustfield left alignment
ios::right ios::adjustfield right alignment
ios::fixed ios::floatfield fixed form of floating point
ios::scientific ios::floatfield force exponential format
ios::showpoint // Always show a point
ios::showpos // If positive still show sign
Q.13 Define a class Distance with feet and inch and with a print function to print the distance.
Write a non-member function max which returns the larger of two distance objects, which

Ans:
#include<iostream.h>
class distance
{
int feet;
float inches;
public:

{
feet=0;
inches=0.0;
}
void getdist()
{

{

Q.16 How are template functions overloaded? Explain with a suitable example. (8)
Ans: A template function can be overloaded using a template functions. It can also be
overloaded using ordinary functions of its name. The matching of the overloaded function is
done in the following manner.
20
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
#include<iostream.h>
#include<string.h>
using namespace std;
template<class T>
void display(T x)
{
cout<<"Template display: "<<x<<"\n";
}
void display(int x)
{
cout<<"Explicit display: "<<x<<"\n";
}
int main()
{
display(20);
display(3.6);
display('A');
return 0;
}

type and returns the index of the element, if found. Give both the function prototype and
the function definition for the template. Assume a class template Array <T> is available.
(5)
Ans:
#include<iostream.h>
template<class atype>
for(int j=0;j<size;j++)
if(array[j]==value)
return j;
return -1;

}
char chrarr[]={1,3,5,9,11,13};
char ch=5;
int intarr[]={1,3,5,9,11,13};
int in=6;
long lonarr[]={1L,3L,5L,9L,11L,13L};
long lo=11L;
double dubarr[]={1.0,3.0,5.0,9.0,11.0,13.0};
double db=4.0;
int main()
{
cout<<"\n 5 in chrarr: index="<<find(chrarr,ch,6);
cout<<"\n 6 in intarr: index="<<find(intarr,in,6);
cout<<"\n 11 in lonarr: index="<<find(lonarr,lo,6);
cout<<"\n 4 in dubarr: index="<<find(dubarr,db,6);
cout<<endl;
return 0;
Ans:
i) If the condition in while loop initially false the loop does not enter into the statements
inside the loop and terminates initially.
ii) In the given statement of while loop n is not initialized. Although there is no initialization
expression, the loop variable n must be initialized before the loop begins.
22
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
iii) The given program code is wrong as const declared PI must be initialized at the time of
declaration. Whereas initialization of int n is correct the correct code is
Int main()
{Const double PI=3.1459265358979;
Int n=22;}
iv) Multidimensional array is an array of arrays the function first take the argument as an array
of parameter first. It does not need to know how many values in parameter there are, but it
does need to know how big each parameter element is, so it can calculate where particular
element is. So we must tell it the size of each element but not how many there are.
v) Only existing operator symbols may be overloaded. New symbols, such as ** for
exponentiation, cannot be defined.
vi) A class can have Default constructor, constructor with an argument, constructor with two
argument and copy constructor.
Q.19 What are the various ways of handling exceptions? Which one is the best? Explain.
(6)
Ans: Exception handling is a mechanism that finds errors at run time. It detects an error and
reports so that an appropriate action can be taken. It adopts the following ways:
a. Hit the exception
b. Throw the exception
c. Catch the exception
d. Handle the exception
The three blocks that is used in exception handling are try throw and catch. A further
advancement that is made is of multiple catch handlers.
A program may have more than one condition to throw an exception. For this we can use more
than one catch block in a program. An example is shown below illustrate the concept:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
void test(int x){
try {
if(x==1) throw x;
else
if(x==0) throw 'x';
else
if(x==-1) throw 1.0;
cout<<"End of try-block\n";
}
catch(char c) {
cout<<"Caught a character \n";
}
catch(int m) {
cout<<"Caught an integer\n";
}
catch(double d) {
cout<<"Caught a double\n";
}
cout<<""End of try-catch system\n\n;}
23
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
int main(){
cout<<"Testing multiple catches\n";
cout<<"x==1\n";
test(1);
cout<<"x==0\n";
test(0);
cout<<"x==-1\n";
test(-1);
cout<<"x==2\n";
test(2); return 0;}
Q.20 Describe, in brief, the steps involved in object oriented analysis. (6)
Problem definition
Requirement
specification
Identify object
Design
24
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Problem Understanding
The first step in the analysis process is to understand the problem of the user. The problem
statement should be refined and redefined in terms of computer system engineering that could
suggest a computer-based solution. The problem statement should be stated, as far as possible,
in a single, grammatically correct sentence. This will enable the software engineers to have a
highly focused attention on the solution of the problem. The problem statement provides the
basis for drawing the requirements specification of both the user and the software.
Requirements Specification
Once the problem is clearly defined, the next step is to understand what the proposed. System is
required to do. It is important at this stage to generate a list of user requirement A clear
understanding should exist between the user and the developer of what is require Based on the
user requirements, the specifications for the software should be drawn. Developer should state
clearly
What outputs are required?
What processes are involved to produce these outputs?
What inputs are necessary?
What resources are required?
These specifications often serve as a reference to test the final product for its performance the
intended tasks.
Identification of Objects
Objects can often be identified in terms of the real-world objects as well as the abstra~
objects. Therefore, the best place to look for objects is the application itself. The application
may be analyzed by using one of the following two approaches:
1.Data flow diagrams (DFD)
2.Textual analysis (TA)
Identification of Services
Once the objects in the solution space have been identified, the next step is to identify set
services that each object should offer. Services are identified by examining all the verbs are
verb phrases in the problem description statement. Doing verbs and compare verbs usually give
rise to services (which we call as functions C++). Being verbs indicate the existence of the
classification structure while having verbs' rise to the composition structures.
Establishing interconnection
This step identifies the services that objects provide and receive. We may use an information
flow diagram(IED) or an entity-relationship (ER) diagram to enlist this information.
Q.21 Write a program in C++ which calculates the factorial of a given number. (6)

Q.23 What are the two methods of opening a file? Explain with examples. What is the difference
between the two methods? (10)
Ans: For opening a file, we first create a file stream which we can link to the file name. we can
define a file stream using 3 classes namely ifstream, ofstream and fstream that are all contained
in the header file fstream. Which class to use shall depend upon the mode in which we want to
open the file viz, read or write. There are 2 modes to open a file.
• Using the constructor function of the class
• Using the member function “open()” of the class.
When using the first method that is constructor function of the class, we initialize the file
stream object by file name. for example the following statement opens a file named “results”
for input.
ifstream infile (“results”);
When using the second method of function “open()”, multiple files can be opened that use the
same stream object for example when we wish to process a number of files in sequential
manner, we shall create a single stream object and use it to open each file in turn. The syntax is
as follows:
file-stream-class stream-object;
stream-object.open(“filename”);
The basic difference between the two methods is that the constructor function of the class is
used when we wish to open just one file in the stream. The open function is used when we wish
to open multiple files using one stream.
Ans: Inheritance, one of the major features of OOP, is to derive certain properties of the base
class in the derived class. A derived class can make use of all the public data members of its
base classes.
Containership is different from Inheritance. When one class is defined inside another class, it is
known as containership or nesting. We can thus imply that one object can be a collection of
many different objects. Both the concepts i.e. inheritance and containership have a vast
difference. Creating an object that contains many objects is different from creating an
independent object. First the member objects are created in the order in which their
constructors occur in the body. Then the constructor of the main body is executed. An
initialization list of the nested class is provided in the constructor.
Example:
class alpha{....};
class beta{....};
class gamma
{
alpha a;
beta b;
public:
28
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Ans: There is an error we cannot assign more than one block sizes to one variable.
Correct array_ptr new int[10];
Ans: The task of the given code is to display the value of XYZ after setting field width 4 (3) if
XYZ=3; set causes the number or string that follows it in the stream to be printed within a field
n characters wide.
Ans: Dynamic initialization of objects means to provide the initial values to an object at run
time.
Using dynamic initialization of objects we can provide different initialization formats of data
for an object at run time. We can use various data types like int, float or char depending upon
our need for the same object created. This provides the flexibility of using different format of
data at run time depending upon the situation.
It can be accomplished using the concept of constructor overloading. For example:
#include<iostream.h>
class loan
{ long principle;
int year;
29
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
float rate;
public:
loan(){}
loan(long p,int y,float r=0.15);
loan(long p,int y,int r);
};
This class uses three overloaded constructors. The parameter values to these constructors are
provided at run time. One can input in any of the form to create object of this class.
Q.29 State, with reason, whether the following statement is true or false
!(4 < 5) || (6 > 7 ) is equal to false (2)
Ans: The output is 21. when the macro #define f(x) x*x-3 as f(x+3) when x=5
Q.31 List at least three C++ operators which cannot be overloaded. (3)
Q.32 Write a template function that swaps the values of two arguments passed to it. In main( ), use
the function with integers and characters. (4)
Ans:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
template <class T>
void swap(T &a,T &b)
{
T temp=a;
a=b;
b=temp;
}
void func(int x,int y,char w,char z)
{
cout<<"x and y before swap: "<<x<<y<<"\n";
swap(x,y)
cout<<"x and y after swap: "<<x<<y<<"\n";

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
}
int main()
{
fun(10,20,’s’,’S’);
return 0;
}
Q.33 What is multiple inheritance? Discuss the syntax and rules of multiple inheritance in C++.
How can you pass parameters to the constructors of base classes in multiple inheritance?
Explain with suitable example. (12)
Ans: C++ provides us with a very advantageous feature of multiple inheritance in which a
derived class can inherit the properties of more than one base class. The syntax for a derived
class having multiple base classes is as follows:
31
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
n=y;
cout<< “N initialized\n”;
}
};
class P: public N, public M
{ int p,r;
public:
P(int a,int b,int c, int d):M(a),N(b)
{
p=c;
r=d;
cout<< “P initialized\n”;
}
};
void main()
{
P p(10,20,30,40);
Q.34 Write a program in C++ to sort a list of given numbers in nondecreasing order. (7)
Ans:
#include<iostream.h>
void main()
{ int *num,i,j,temp,n,flag;
num=new int[10];
cout<<"how many number to sort(limit)"<<endl;
cin>>n;
cout<<"enter numbers to sort in nondecreasing order"<<endl;
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
cin>>num[i];
}
for(i=0;i<n-1;i++)
{
flag=1;
for(j=0;j<(n-1-i);j++)
{
32
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
if(num[j]>num[j+1])
{
flag=0;
temp=num[j];
num[j]=num[j+1];
num[j+1]=temp;
}
}
if(flag)
break;
}
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
cout<<num[i]<<endl;
}
}
Q.35 What do you mean by static class members? Explain the characteristics of static class
members with suitable examples. (8)
Ans: Static class member variables are used commonly by the entire class. It stores values. No
different copies of a static variable are made for each object. It is shared by all the objects. It is
just like the C static variables.
It has the following characteristics:
• On the creation of the first object of the class a static variable is always initialized by zero.
• All the objects share the single copy of a static variable.
• The scope is only within the class but its lifetime is through out the program.
An example is given below:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class num
{
static int c;
int n;
public:
void getd(int x)
{
n =x;
c++;
}
void getc(void)
{
cout<<"count: "<<c<<"\n";
}
};
int num :: c;
33
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
int main()
{
num o1,o2,o3;
o1.getc();
o2.getc();
o3.getc();
o1.getd(1);

o3.getd(3);
cout<<"After reading data"<<"\n";
o1.getc();
o2.getc();
o3.getc();
return 0;
}
Q.36 Create a class Patient that stores the patient name (a string) and the disease (a string) of the
patient. From this class derive two classes : In_patient which has a data member roomrent
(type float) and Out_patient which has a data member OPD_charges (float). Each of these
three classes should have a nondefault constructor and a putdata() function to display its
data. Write a main() program to test In_ patient and Out_patient classes by creating
instances of them and then displaying the data with putdata(). (10)
Ans:
#include<iostream.h>
class patient
{
protected:
char *name,*disease;
public:
patient(char *n,char *d)
{
name=n;
disease=d;
}

Q.38 When do we use multi catch handlers? Explain with an example. (8)
catch(int m) {
cout<<"Caught an integer\n";
}
catch(double d) {
cout<<"Caught a double\n";
}
cout<<""End of try-catch system\n\n;
}

{
cout<<"Testing multiple catches\n";
cout<<"x==1\n";
test(1);
cout<<"x==0\n";
test(0);
cout<<"x==-1\n";
test(-1);
cout<<"x==2\n";
test(2);
return 0;}
The output:

x==1
Caught an integer
End of try-catch system
x==0

p = O1.a1;
q = O1.a2;
r = O1.a3;
i = O2.a1;
j = O2.a2;
k = O2.a3;
}
Ans:
In the given code:
• Class B cannot have access over the private variable a1 of class A as a private variable is
never inherited. Thus b1=a1 cannot be used.
• Class C also cannot have access over the private member a1 of class A as C inherits class
B which does not contain a1 as its inherited member. Thus c1=a1 cannot be used.
• Inside main() function, object O1 of class B cannot access a1. Thus the statement O1.a1 is
not valid.
• Similarly object O2 of class C also cannot access a1. Thus statement O2.a1 is also not
valid.
Inside main() function, the protected member a3 of class B is not accessible.So the statements
“r = O1.a3; and k = O2.a3; “ is invalid
Ans:
(i) Procedure oriented vs object oriented programming
Procedure-oriented programming basically consists of writing a list of instructions (or actions)
for the computer to follow, and organizing these instructions into groups known as functions .
We normally use a flowchart to organize these actions and represent the flow of control from
one action to another. While we concentrate on the development of functions, very little
39
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
attention is given to the data that are being used by various functions. What happens to the
data? How are they affected by the functions that work on them? In a multi-function program,
many important data items are placed as global so that they may be accessed by all the
functions. Each function may have its own local data. Global data are more vulnerable to an
inadvertent change by a function. In a large program it is very difficult to identify what data is
used by which function. In case we need to revise an external data structure, we also need to
revise all functions that access the data. This provides an opportunity for bugs to creep in.
Another serious drawback with the procedural approach is that it does not model real world
problems very well. This is because functions are action-oriented and do not really correspond
to the elements of the problem.
Some characteristics exhibited by procedure-oriented programming are:
• Emphasis is on doing things (algorithms).
• Large programs are divided into smaller programs known as functions. Most of the
functions share global data.
• Data move openly around the system from function to function.
• Functions transform data from one form to another.
• Employs top-down approach in program design.
Object-Oriented programming
The major motivating factor in the invention of object-oriented approach is to remove some of
the flaws encountered in the procedural approach. OOP treats data as a critical element in the
program development and does not allow it to flow freely around the system. It ties data more
closely to the functions that operate on it, and protects it from accidental modification from
outside functions. OOP allows decomposition of a problem into a number of entities called
objects and then builds data and functions around these objects. The data of an object can be
accessed only by the functions associated with that object. However, functions of one object
can access the functions of other objects.
Object-oriented programming is the most recent concept among programming paradigms and
still means different things to different people. It is therefore important to have a working
definition of object-oriented programming before we proceed further. We define "object-
oriented programming as an approach that provides a way of modularizing programs by
creating partitioned memory area for both data and functions that can be used as templates for
creating copies of such modules on demand." Thus, an object is considered to be a partitioned
area of computer memory that stores data and set of operations that can access that data. Since
40
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
the memory partitions are independent, the objects can be used in a variety of different
programs without modifications.
Class Dependencies
It is important to identify appropriate classes to represent the objects in the solution space
and establish their relationships. The major relationships that are important in the context of
design are:
1. Inheritance relationship
2. Containment relationship.
3. Use relationships
Design of Class
Given below are some guidelines which should be considered while designing a class:
1. The public interface of a class should have only functions of the class.
2. An object of one class should not send a message directly to a member of another class.
3. A function should be declared public only when it is required to be used by the objects of
the class.
4. Each function either accesses or modifies some data of the class it represents.
41
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Q.41 When does ambiguity arise in multiple inheritance? How can one resolve it? Develop a
program in C++ to create a derived class having following items: name, age, rollno, marks,
empcode and designation. Design a base class student having data members as rollno,
marks and the another base class is employee having data members as empcode and
designation. These both base classes are inherited from a single base class person with data
members name and age. The program should carry out the required input( ) and output( )
member functions for all. (12)
Ans:
A class can be derived such that it inherits the properties of two or more base classes. This is
called multiple inheritance.

Ambiguity occurs when the base classes have functions with same name. for example if two
base classes have the function get_data().then which function will be used by the derived class?
This problem can be solved be defining a named instance with the derived class, using the class
resolution operator with the function name.
Program:
#include<conio.h>
#include<iostream.h>
class person{
public:
char name[20];
int age;
void get_details();
void disp_details();
};
void person::get_details() {
cout<<"enter name:";
cin>>name;
cout<<"enter age:";
cin>>age;
}
void person::disp_details() {
cout<<"name:"<<name;
cout<<'\n';
cout<<"age:"<<age;
cout<<'\n';
}
class student: public person {
public:
int roll_no;
int marks;
void get_details(int a,int b) {
roll_no = a;
marks = b;
}
void disp_data()
{
cout<<"roll_no:"<<roll_no;
cout<<'\n';
cout<<"marks:"<<marks; }
};
class employee:public person {
public:

Ans: The include compiler directive is a preprocessor directive. Means, it is a command to the
preprocessor. A preprocessor is a program that performs the preliminary processing with the
purpose of expanding macro code templates to produce a C++ code. By including this header
file, the function that we are using is replaced by the entire function definition. This is very
helpful in case of small modules which are to be called several times in a program. It reduces
the overhead cost of calling the function each time.
Ans:Difference between macro and function macroThe preprocessor will replace all the
macro function used in the program by their function body before the compilation. The
distinguishing feature of macro function are that there will be no explicit function call during
execution, since the body is substituted at the point of macro call during compilation. Thereby
the runtime overhead for the function linking or context-switch time is reduced. The directive #
define indicates the start of a macro function as shown in the figure.

Examples:
#define inc(a) a+1
#define add(a, b) (a+b)
Function:A function is a set of program statements that can be processed independer.tly. A
function can be invoked which behaves as though its code is inserted at the point of the
function call. The communication between a caller (calling function) and callee (called
function) takes place through parameters. The functions can be designed, developed, and
implemented independently by different programmers. The independent functions can be
grouped to form a software library. Functions are independent because variable names and
labels defined within its body are local to it.
The use of functions offers flexibility in the design, development, and implementation of the
program to solve complex problems. The advantages of functions includes the following:
• Modular programming
• Reduction in the amount of work and development time
• Program and function debugging is easier
• Division of work is simplitied due to the use of divide-and-conquer principle .
• Reduction in size of the program due to code reusability
• Functions can be accessed repeatedly without redevelopment, which in turn promotes reuse
of code .
• Library of functions can be implemented by combining well designed, tested and proven
function.
Function Components
Every function has the following elements associated with it:
1. Function declaration or prototype.
2. Function parameters (formal parameters)
3. Combination of function declaration and its definition.
4. Function definition (function declaration and a function body).
5. return statement.
6. Function call.
A function can be executed using a function call in the program. The various components associated
with the function are shown in Figure

Q.45 Explain the use of break and continue statements in switch case statements. (4)
switch( c )
{
case 'A':
capa++;
case 'a':
lettera++;
default :
total++;
}
All three statements of the switch body in this example are executed if c is equal to 'A' since a
break statement does not appear before the following case. Execution control is transferred to
the first statement (capa++;) and continues in order through the rest of the body. If c is equal
to 'a', lettera and total are incremented. Only total is incremented if c is not equal to 'A' or
'a'.
switch( i )
{
case -1:
n++;
47
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
break;
case 0 :
z++;
break;
case 1 :
p++;
break;
}
In this example, a break statement follows each statement of the switch body. The break
statement forces an exit from the statement body after one statement is executed. If i is equal to
1, only n is incremented. The break following the statement n++; causes execution control to
pass out of the statement body, bypassing the remaining statements. Similarly, if i is equal to 0,
only z is incremented; if i is equal to 1, only p is incremented. The final break statement is not
strictly necessary, since control passes out of the body at the end of the compound statement,
but it is included for consistency.
Q.46 What is Object Oriented Programming (OOP)? What are the advantages of Object Oriented
Programming? (6)
Ans:
Ans: Object Oriented Programming (OOP) is an approach that provides a way of
modulating programs by creating partitioned memory area for both data and functions that can
be used as templates for creating copies of such modules on demand.
The advantages of OOP are as follows:
• Function and data both are tied together in a single unit.
• Data is not accessible by external functions as it is hidden.
• Objects may communicate with each other only through functions.
• It is easy to add new data and functions whenever required.
• It can model real world problems very well.
48
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
each step, you add another number (which is the same number as the number of the step you
are on). This is called "iterating through the problem." The only part that really changes from
step to step is the number of the step, since you can figure out all the other information (like the
number you need to add) from that step number. This is the key to iteration: using the step
number to find all of your other information. The classic example of iteration in languages like
BASIC or C++, of course, is the loop.
If iteration is a bunch of steps leading to a solution, recursion is like piling all of those steps
on top of each other and then quashing them all into the solution. Recursion is like holding
a mirror up to another mirror: in each image, there is another, smaller image that's basically the
same.
Example: recursion
int factorial(int number)
{
if (number < 0)
{
cout << "\nError - negative argument to factorial\n";
exit(1);
}
else if (number == 0)
return 1;
else
return (number * factorial(number - 1));
}
if (number < 0)
{
cout << "\nError - negative argument to factorial\n";
exit(1);
}
else if (number == 0)
return 1;
else
{
for ( ; number > 0 ; number--)
49
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
product *= number;
return product;
}
So, the difference between iteration and recursion is that with iteration, each step clearly
leads onto the next, like stepping stones across a river, while in recursion, each step
replicates itself at a smaller scale, so that all of them combined together eventually solve
the problem. These two basic methods are very important to understand fully, since they
appear in almost every computer algorithm ever made.

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
There are two types of identifiers with static storage class: external identifiers (such as global
variables and function names) and local variables declared with the storage class specifier
static. Global variables and function names default to storage class specifier extern. Global
variables are created by placing variable declarations outside any function definition. They
retain their values throughout the execution of the program.

void rectangular(float x, float y);

}
void coord :: polar(float r,float a)
{
cout<<"\n Enter the radius and angle : ";

void display()
{
cout<<"\n The rectangular coordinates are : "<<x<<" and "<<y;
}
void main()
{
coord obj;
obj.polar();
obj.rectangular();
obj.display();
}
Ans: The following code is not correct as it will display nothing the given code is
int intvar=333;
int *intptr;
cout<<*intptr;
since the pointer variable is not assigned any address so it will display nothing. But if we add
one more line that is intptr=&intvar; then it will display 333.
Q.53 What is multilevel inheritance? How is it different from multiple inheritance? (5)
Intermediate
B Base Class
C Derived class
54
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Multiple Inheritance.
When the number of base classes Inherited exceeds one then the type of inheritance is known
as Multiple Inheritance.
For example in C++, The syntax:
Class D: public A, public B
{
//code
}
Though Multiple Inheritance sounds exciting and very useful it has its own drawbacks, owing
to which most OOP languages deny support for this feature. These drawbacks include
complexities involved when inheriting from many classes and the difficulty in managing such
codes.

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Ans:
i.) Non-public constructors: If a constructor is protected or private, it is called non-public
constructor. We cannot create objects of a class that have non-public constructors. Only
member function and friend function can create objects in this case.
ii.) Inline functions: A function which is expanded in line is called an inline function.
Whenever we write there are certain costs associated with it such as jumping to the function,
saving registers, pushing arguments into the stack and returning to the calling function. To
remove this overhead we write an inline function. It is a sort of request from the compiler. If we
declare and define a function within the class definition then it is automatically inline.
Advantage of inline functions:
• They have no overhead associated with function cal or return mechanism
Disadvantage of inline functions:
• If the function made inline is too large and called regularly our program grows larger.
There are certain restrictions in which the compiler may apply like:- some compilers will not
inline a function if it contains a static variable or if the function contains a loop, a switch , etc..
iii.) Virtual function: virtual functions are important because they support polymorphism at
run time. A virtual function is a member function that is declared within the base class but
redefined inside the derived class. To create a virtual function we precede the function
declaration with the keyword virtual. Thus we can assume the model of “one interface multiple
method”. The virtual function within the base class defines the form of interface to that
function. It happens when a virtual function is called through a pointer.
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class base
{
57
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
public:
int i;
base(int x)
{
i=x;
}
virtual void func()
{
cout<<"\n using base version of function";
cout<<i<<endl;
}
};
class derived: public base
{
public:
derived(int x):base(x){}
void func()
{
cout<<"\n sing derived version";
cout<<i*i<<endl;
}
};
class derived1: public base
{
public:
derived1(int x): base(x){}
void func()
{
cout<<"\n using derived1 version";
cout<<i+i<<endl;
}
58
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
};

{
base *p;

derived1 d_ob1(10);
p=&ob;
p->func();
p=&d_ob;
p->func();
p=&d_ob1;
p->func();
return 0;
}
iv.) Inheritance: the mechanism of deriving a new class from an old one is called inheritance.
The old class is called the base class and the new one is known as the derived class or sub class.
Types of inheritance
a. A derived class with only one base class is called single inheritance
b. A derived class with several base classes is called multiple inheritance.
c. When one base class is inherited by more than one class is called hierarchical
inheritance.
d. When one derived class inherits another derived class, it is called multilevel
inheritance.

Q.58 What are the basic differences between manipulators and ios member functions in
implementation? Give examples. (8)
Ans:
The basic difference between manipulators and ios member functions in implementation is as
follows:
The ios member function returns the previous format state which can be of use later on but the
manipulator does not return the previous format state. Whenever we need to save the old format
states, we must use the ios member functions rather then the manipulators. Example: an
example program illustrating the formatting of the output values using both manipulators and
ios functions is given below.
#include<iostream.h>
#include<iomanip.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout.setf(ios::showpoint);

Q.59 Class Y has been derived from class X. The class Y does not contain any data members of
its own. Does the class Y require constructor. If yes, why? (4)
Ans:Yes, it is mandatory for class Y to have a constructor. It is the responsibility of the derived
class constructor to invoke the base class constructor by passing required arguments to
it.Unless the constructor of class Y is invoked the data members of class X that have been
inherited by class Y will not be given any values. Although class Y does not have any data
member of its own, yet to use the data members inherited from X, Y needs a constructor.

Q.62 How can a common friend function to two different classes be declared? (4)
Ans:
Friend functions are not considered class members; they are normal external functions that are
given special access privileges. Friends are not in the classs scope, and they are not called using
the member-selection operators (. and >) unless they are members of another class.
Any data which is declared private inside a class is not accessible from outside the class. A
function which is not a member or an external class can never access such private data. But
there may be some cases, where a programmer will need need access to the private data from
non-member functions and external classes. C++ offers some exceptions in such cases.
A class can allow non-member functions and other classes to access its own private data, by
making them as friends. This part of C++ tutorial essentially gives two important points.
Once a non-member function is declared as a friend, it can access the private data of the class
similarly when a class is declared as a friend, the friend class can have access to the private
data of the class which made this a friend.

Q.66 Explain the difference between constructor and copy constructor in C++. Which of these is
invoked in the following statement
Date D1 (D2); where D2 is also an object of class Date. (3)
Ans: Constructors are special `member functions' of which exactly one is called automatically
at creation time of an object. Which one depends on the form of the variable declaration.
Symmetrically, there exists a destructor, which is automatically called at destruction time of an
object. Three types of constructors are distinguished: default constructor, copy constructor, and
all others (user defined). A constructor has the same name as the class and it has no return type.
The parameter list for the default and the copy constructor are fixed. The user-defined
constructors can have arbitrary parameter lists following C++ overloading rules.
class A {
int i; // private
public:
A(); // default constructor
A( const A& a); // copy constructor
A( int n); // user defined
~A(); // destructor
};
int main() {
A a1; // calls the default constructor
A a2 = a1; // calls the copy constructor (not the assignment operator)
A a3(a1); // calls the copy constructor (usual constructor call syntax)
A a4(1); // calls the user defined constructor
} // automatic destructor calls for a4, a3, a2, a1 at the end of the block

Q.68 Why is destructor function required in class? What are the special characteristics of
destructors? Can a destructor accept arguments? (8)
Ans: Destructor: A destructor is used to destroy the objects that have been created by a
constructor. It has the same name as that of the class but is preceded by a tilde. For example,
~integer () {}
Characteristics:
• A destructor is invoked implicitly by the compiler when we exit from the program or block.
It releases memory space for future use.
• A destructor never accepts any argument nor does it return any value.
• It is not possible to take the address of a destructor.
• Destructors can not be inherited.
• They cannot be overloaded
For example, the destructor for the matrix class will defined as follows:
matrix :: ~matrix()
{
for(int i=0;i<d1;i++)
delete p[i];
delete p;
}
Q.69 Define a class Deposit which has a principal, a rate of interest which is fixed for all deposits

Q.70 Differentiate and give examples to bring out the difference between
(i) private and public inheritance.
(ii) instantiation and specialization of a template class.
(iii) static and dynamic binding.
(i) a class and a struct. (3.5 x 4)
Ans:
i) private and public inheritance
In private inheritence the public members of the base class become private members of the
derived class. Therefore the object of derived class cannot have access to the public member
function of base class.
In public inheritance the derived class inherit all the public members of the base class and
retains their visibility. Thus the public member of the base class is also the public member of
the derived class.

can be any of these three keywords:
Q.71 Explain the order in which constructors are invoked when there is multiple inheritance.
(4)
Ans: The order in which constructor is invoked when there is multiple inheritance is order in
which the class is derived that is constructor of base class will invoke first and then the
constructor of derived class and so on. The destructor will invoke in reverse order than
constructor. That is destructor of derived class will invoke first and then base class. Example
Class a
{
a()
{
cout<<”constructor a”;
}
~a()
{
cout<<”destructor a”;
}
};
class b : public a
{
b()

Q.72 Define a class Publication which has a title. Derive two classes from it – a class Book which
has an accession number and a class Magazine which has volume number. With these two as
bases, derive the class Journal. Define a function print() in each of these classes. Ensure that
the derived class function always invokes the base(s) class function. In main() create a Journal
called IEEEOOP with an accession number 681.3 and a volume number 1. Invoke the print()
function for this object. (10)

Q.76 What are abstract classes? How do you define one and how is it useful in a typical library?
(4)
Ans: A class that contains at least one pure virtual function is considered an abstract class.
Classes derived from the abstract class must implement the pure virtual function or they, too,
are abstract classes. class Account
{
public:
Account( double d ); // Constructor.
virtual double GetBalance(); // Obtain balance.
virtual void PrintBalance() = 0; // Pure virtual function.
80
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
private:
double _balance;
};
Abstract classes act as expressions of general concepts from which more specific classes can be
derived. You cannot create an object of an abstract class type; however, you can use pointers
and references to abstract class types.

Q88 What is encapsulation? What are its advantages? How can encapsulation be enforced in
C++? (6)
Ans: Encapsulation: The wrapping up of data and functions into a single unit is called
encapsulation. The data can only be accessed by the function with which they have been tied up
and not by the outside world. It creates an interface between the object’s data and the program.
A common use of information hiding is to hide the physical storage layout for data so that if it
is changed, the change is restricted to a small subset of the total program. For example, if a
three-dimensional point (x, y, z) is represented in a program with three floating point scalar
variables and later, the representation is changed to a single array variable of size three, a
module designed with information hiding in mind would protect the remainder of the program
from such a change.
In object-oriented programming, information hiding reduces software development risk by
shifting the code's dependency on an uncertain implementation (design decision) onto a well-
defined interface. Through encapsulation, we can provide security to our data function.
Encapsulation can be enforced in C++ using the concept of classes which binds data and
function together. Private data and member functions will not be visible to outside world. For
example, in the following class two members x, y declared as private can be accessed only by
the member functions, not even in main( ) we can call these data members.
class XY
{
int x,y;
public:
void getdata();
void dispdata();
};
void XY::getdata()
{ cout<< “Enter two values\n”;
cin>>a>>b;
}
void XY::dispdata()
{ cout<<a<<b;
}
void main()
{ XY xy1,xy2;
xy1.getdata();
xy2.dispdata();
}
Q.89 Write a C++ program which reads in a line of text word by word in a loop using cin

prat Jack’. (8)

}
Q 90 How are member functions different from other global functions? (2)
Ans: A member function and a non –member function are entirely different from each other.
A member function has full access to the private data members of a class. A member function
can directly access the data members without taking the help of an object. For calling member
function in main(), dot operator is required along with an object. A member function cannot be
called without an object outside the class.
A non member function cannot access the private members of a class. Non-member function
are called in main( ) without using an object of a class.

Q.92 Differentiate and give examples to bring out the difference between
Ans:
(i). Function overloading and function overriding:
Function overloading means the use of the same function name to create functions that perform
a variety of different tasks. The functions would perform different operations depending on the
argument list in the function call. The correct function to be invoked is selected by seeing the
number and type of the arguments but not the function type. For example an overloaded
function volume() handles different types of data as shown below:
int volume(int s);
double volume(double r, int h);
long volume(long l, long b,int h);
89
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Function overridding is used to describe virtual function redefinition by a derived class. This is
useful when we want to have multiple derived classes implementing a base class function. We
can put the common code to all of the derived classes in the base class function, and then in
each of the derived class functions we can add the code specific to each one, and then just
invoke the parent method. It differs from function overloading in the sense that all aspects of
the parameters should be same when a overridden function is redefined in derived class.
Function templates are those functions which can handle different data types without separate
code for each of them. For a similar operation on several kinds of data types, a programmer
need not write different versions by overloading a function. It is enough if he writes a C++
template based function. This will take care of all the data types. An example that finds the
maximum value of an array using template is given below:
#include<iostream.h>
template<class T>
void max(T a[],T &m,int n)
{
for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
if(a[i]>m)
m=a[i];
}
int main()
{
int x[5]={10,50,30,40,20};
int m=x[0];
max(x,m,5);
cout<<"\n The maximum value is : "<<m;
return 0;
}
Inline Functions: An inline function is one for which the compiler copies the code from the
function definition directly into the code of the calling function rather than creating a separate
set of instructions in memory. Instead of transferring control to and from the function code
segment, a copy of the function body may be substituted directly for the function call. In this
way, the performance overhead of a function call is avoided. A function is declared inline by
using the inline function specifier or by defining a member function within a class or structure
definition. The inline specifier is only a suggestion to the compiler that an inline expansion can
be performed; the compiler is free to ignore the suggestion.
90
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Dafault constructor: A constructor that accepts no argument is called default constructor. This
default constructor takes no parameters, or has default values for all parameters. The default
constructor for the class A is A::A(). If no such constructor is defined, then the compiler
supplies a default constructor. A default parameter is one where the parameter value is supplied
in the definition. For example in the class A defined below 5 is the default value parameter.
Class A
{ int value;
Public:
A(int param=5)
{
value = param;
}
};
A copy constructor is a special constructor in the C++ programming language used to create a
new object as a copy of an existing object. This constructor takes a single argument: a reference
to the object to be copied. Normally the compiler automatically creates a copy constructor for
each class (known as an implicit copy constructor) but for special cases the programmer creates
the copy constructor, known as an explicit copy constructor. In such cases, the compiler doesn't
create one.
For example the following will be valid copy constructors for class A.
A(A const&);
A(A&);
A(A const volatile&);
A(A volatile&);
The keywords public and private are visibility labels. When the data members of a class are
declared as private, then they will be visible only within the class. If we declare the class
members as public then it can be accessed from the outside world also. Private specifier is used
in data hiding which is the key feature of object oriented programming. The use of the keyword
private is optional. When no specifier is used the data member is private by default. If all the
data members of a class are declared as private then such a class is completely hidden from the
outside world and does not serve any purpose.
class class-name
{
private:
int x,y;//No entry to private area
91
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
private:
int a,b;//entry allowed to public area
}
Q.93 The keyword ‘virtual’ can be used for functions as well as classes in C++. Explain the two
different uses. Give an example each. (6)
Ans: Virtual function: virtual functions are important because they support polymorphism at
run time. A virtual function is a member function that is declared within the base class but
redefined inside the derived class. To create a virtual function we precede the function
declaration with the keyword virtual. Thus we can assume the model of “one interface multiple
method”. The virtual function within the base class defines the form of interface to that
function. It happens when a virtual function is called through a pointer.The following example
illustrates the use of a virtual function:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class base
{
public:
int i;
base(int x)
{
i=x;
}
virtual void func()
{
cout<<"\n using base version of function";
cout<<i<<endl;
}
};
class derived: public base
{
public:
derived(int x):base(x){}
void func()
{
cout<<"\n using derived version";
cout<<i*i<<endl;
}
};
class derived1: public base
{
public:
derived1(int x): base(x){}
void func()
92
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
{
cout<<"\n using derived1 version";
cout<<i+i<<endl;
}
};
int main()
{
base *p;
base ob(10);
derived d_ob(10);
derived1 d_ob1(10);
p=&ob;
p->func();
p=&d_ob;
p->func();
p=&d_ob1;
p->func();
return 0;
}
Virtual class: The concept of virtual class is very important as far as inheritance is
concerned. Basically, the need for a making a class virtual arises when all the three basic types
of inheritance exist in the same program- Multiple, multilevel and hierarchical inheritance.
For instance suppose we create a class child which inherit the properties of two other classes
parent1 and parent2 and these two parent classes are inherited from a grandparent class. The
grandfather class is the indirect base class for child class. Now the class child will have
properties of the grandfather class but inherited twice, once through both the parents. The child
can also inherit the properties straight from its indirect base class grandfather. To avoid the
ambiguity caused due to the duplicate sets of inherited data we declare the common base class
as virtual. Those classes that directly inherit the virtual class will be declared as follows:
class grandparents
{
....
....
};
class parent1: virtual public grandparents
{
....
....
};
class parent2: public virtual grandparents
{
....
....
};
class child: public parent1,public parent2

Q.101 When do you rethrow any (caught) exception? Give the syntax.
Ans: An exception handler can rethrow an exception that it has caught without even processing
it. It simply invokes the throw without passing any arguments.
throw;
This exception is then thrown to the next try/catch and is caught by a catch statement listed
after that enclosing try block.
is that class X should be followed by an opening curly bracket and not a curve bracket.
Q.103 Assume that the cell users are two kinds – those with a post paid option and those with a
prepaid option. Post paid gives a fixed free talk time and the rest is computed at the rate of
Rs.1.90 per pulse. Prepaid cards have a fixed talk time.
Define a class Cell_user as a base class and derive the hierarchy of classes. Define member
functions and override them wherever necessary to
(i) retrieve the talk time left for each user.
(ii) print the bill in a proper format containing all the information for the post
paid user. (14)

Q.107 Define a class template Pair which can have a pair of values. The type of the values is the

#include<stdio.h>
template <class T>
102
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING

Q.108 Check if the template works for char* where Add() must concatenate the two strings. If not
find a solution. (4)
Ans:
It will not work for char * where Add() must concatenate the two strings.
This can be done by overloading the function add() as
void Add(char *str1, char *str2)
{
char *str3;
strcpy(str3,str1);
strcat(str3,str2);
cout<<str3;
}
103
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Ans:
i) Constructor:
A constructor is a member function which has the same name as at that of the class. It is used to
initialize the data members of the class. A constructor is automatically invoked by the compiler
when an object is created. A constructor which does not take any arguments is called default
constructor.
The restrictions applied to a constructor are:
• A constructor cannot have any return type as it does not return any value.
• A constructor should be declared in the public part of the class.
• A derived class can call the constructor of the base class but a constructor is never
inherited.
• A constructor function cannot be made virtual.
• That object which has a constructor cannot be used as a member of the union.
C++ provides us with very helpful feature i.e., copy constructor. It is the mechanism in which
we can declare and initialize an object from another both belonging to the same class. For
example, the following statement will create an object obj2 and also initialize it by taking
values from obj1.
integer obj2(obj1);
We can also use the following instead the above for the same purpose.
integer obj2=obj1;
This process of initializing objects using copy constructor is known as “copy initialization”.
Another statement obj2=obj1 will not assign the values using the copy constructor. Although
the statement is valid this can be done using operator overloading.
#include<iostream.h>
class item
{
int code;
public:
item(){}
item(int n){code=n;}
104
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
item(item & a)
{
code=a.code;
}
void show(void)
{cout<<code;}
};
int main()
{
item obj(12);
item obj2(obj1);
item obj3=obj1;
item obj4;
obj4=obj1;//copy constructor not called
cout<<"\n code of obj1 : ";
obj1.show();
cout<<"\n code of obj2 : ";
obj2.show();
cout<<"\n code of obj3 : ";
obj3.show();
cout<<"\n code of obj4 : ";
obj4.show();
}
ii) Stream: Stream is defined as an interface supplied by the I/O system to the programmer
and that which is independent of the actual device being used. Stream is actually a sequence of
bytes. These are basically of two types: one is when it is a source through which input can be
taken and the other is when it acts as a destination to which output can be sent. The source
stream is called the input stream and the destination stream is called the output stream. There
are several streams likewise cin is an input stream which extracts input from the keyboard and
cout is the output stream which inserts the ouput to the screen. The three streams used are:-
• istream(input stream).this stream inherits the properties of ios and declares input
functions such get(), getline() and read().the extraction operator used for this >>
• ostream(output stream). This also inherits properties from ios and declared output
functions such as put() and write(). It uses the insertion operator <<.
• Iostream(input/output stream). This inherits properties from ios istream and ostream
and through multiple inheritance contains all the input output functions.
105
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
iii). Access control: This is done using three keywords public, private and protected. These
keywords are visibility labels. When the data members of a class are declared as private, then
they will be visible only within the class. If we declare the class members as public then it can
be accessed from the outside world also. Private specifier is used in data hiding which is the
key feature of object oriented programming. The use of the keyword private is optional. When
no specifier is used the data member is private by default. If all the data members of a class are
declared as private then such a class is completely hidden from the outside world and does not
serve any purpose.
class class-name
{
private:
int x,y;//No entry to private area
private:
int a,b;//entry allowed to public area
}
These access specifiers determine how elements of the base class are inherited by the derived
class. When the access specifier for the inherited base class is public, all public members of the
base class become public members of the derived class. If the access specifier is private, all
public members of the base class become private members for the derived class. Access
specifier is optional. In case of a derived ‘class’ it is private by default. In case of a derived
‘structure’ it is public by default.
The protected specifier is equivalent to the private specifier with the exception that protected
members of a base class are accessible to members of any class derived from the base. Outside
the base or derived class, protected members are not accessible. The protected specifier can
appear anywhere in the class.
When a protected member of a base class is inherited as public by the derived class, it becomes
protected member of the derived class. If the base is inherited a private, the protected member
of the base becomes private member of the derived class.
106
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
iv) Friend:
Friend is keyword in C++ which is used to declare friend function and friend classes. It can
access the private data members of the class it has to take the help of the object of that class. A
friend function is not the member of the class. When we create an object memory is not located
for the friend function. It is defined like a normal function. While calling a friend function we
not use object as friend function is not the part of the object. Thus is called like any normal non
member function. It also helps in operator overloading.
The following is an example program:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class one;
class two
{
int a;
public:
void setvalue(int n){a=n;}
friend void max(two,one);
};
class one
{
int b;
public:
void setvalue(int n){b=n;}
friend void max(two,one);
};
void max(two s,one t)
{
if(s.a>=t.b)
cout<<s.a;
else
cout<<t.b;
}
int main()
{
one obj1;
obj1.setvalue(5);
two obj2;
obj2.setvalue(10);
max(obj2,obj1);
return 0;
}
When we declare all the member functions of a class as friend functions of another then such a
class is known as a friend class.
107
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
class Z
{
friend class X;//all member functions af X are friends of Z
}
Q.110 What is the difference between passing a parameter by reference and constant reference?
(2)
Ans: By passing a parameter by reference, the formal argument in the function becomes alias
to the actual argument in the calling function. Thus the function actually works on the original
data. For example:
void swap(int &a, int &b) //a and b are reference variables
{
int t=a;
a=b;
b=t;
}
The calling function would be:
swap(m,n);
the values of m and n integers will be swapped using aliases.
Constant Reference: A function may also return a constant reference. Example:
int & max(int &x,int &y)
{
If((x+y)!=0)
return x;
return y;
}
The above function shall return a reference to x or y.
Q.111 Define the following terms and give an example to show its realization in C++
(i) Encapsulation (ii) Class variables and class functions
(iii) Repeated inheritance (iv) Overloading (3.5 x 4)
Ans:
(i) Encapsulation: The term encapsulation is often used interchangeably with information
hiding. Not all agree on the distinctions between the two though; one may think of information
hiding as being the principle and encapsulation being the technique. A software module hides
information by encapsulating the information into a module or other construct which presents
an interface.
108
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
A common use of information hiding is to hide the physical storage layout for data so that if it
is changed, the change is restricted to a small subset of the total program. For example, if a
three-dimensional point (x,y,z) is represented in a program with three floating point scalar
variables and later, the representation is changed to a single array variable of size three, a
module designed with information hiding in mind would protect the remainder of the program
from such a change.
(ii) Class variables and class functions: Static variables are associated with the class rather
than any class objects, so they are known as class variables. The type and scope of each class
variable must be defined outside the class definition as they are stored separately rather than as
a part of an object.
Static functions can have access to only other static members (functions and variables) declared
in the same class. These functions are known as class functions. A class function is called by
using the class name instead of its objects like
Class-name:: function-name;
(iii)Repeated Inheritance: C++ requires that the programmer state which parent class the
feature to use should come from. C++ does not support explicit repeated inheritance since there
would be no way to qualify which superclass to use. Repeated inheritance means not being able
to explicitly inherit multiple times from a single class. Multiple Inheritance usually corresponds
to this-a relationship. It is a common mistake to use multiple inheritance for has-a relationship.
For example, a Filter circuit may consist of Resistors, Capacitors and Inductors. It'll be a
mistake to declare Filter as a subclass of resistor, capacitor and inductor (multiple inheritance).
Instead, it is better to declare component objects of resistors, capacitors, and inductors within
the new Filter class, and reference the component methods indirectly through these component
objects.
(iv)Overloading: The process of making a function or an operator behave in different manners
is known as overloading. Function overloading means the use of same function name to
perform a variety of different tasks. The correct function to be invoked is selected by seeing the
number and type of the arguments but not the function type.
Operator overloading refers to adding a special meaning to an operator. The operator doesn’t
lose its original meaning but the new meaning is added for that particular class. For example,
we can add two strings as:
String1+String2=string3;
“good”+ “girl”= “goodgirl”;
An example program of function overloading:
//Function volume is overloaded three times.
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
int vol(int);
double vol(double,int);
long vol(int,int,int);
109
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING

{

center=p;

Q.114 What is the access specification that should precede a friend function? (2)

The meaning and working of the friend function is not altered by using any of the two access
specifiers.

Using exception handling we can more easily manage and respond to run time errors. It helps
us in coping up with the unusual predictable problems that arise while executing a program.
Q.121 What are the keywords on which exception handling is built? Explain each one of them.
Give an example. (6)
Ans: C++ exception handling is built upon 3 keywords: try, catch and throw.
• The ‘try’ block contains program statements that we want to monitor for exceptions.
• The ‘throw’ block throws an exception to the ‘catch’ block if it occurs within the try block.
• The ‘catch’ blocks proceeds on the exception thrown by the ‘throw’ block.
When an exception is thrown, it is caught by its corresponding catch statement which processes
the exception. There can be more that one catch statement associated with a try. The catch
statement that is used is determined by the type of the exception. An example illustrates the
working of the three blocks.
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout<<"\n Start "<<endl;
try
{
cout<<"\n Inside try block "<<endl;
throw 10;
cout<<"\n this will not execute ";
}
catch(int i)
{
cout<<"\n catch number "<<endl;
cout<<i<<endl;
}
cout<<"End";
return 0;
}
Ans:
i. ios class: ios is the base class meant for istream(input sream), ostream(output stream)
and iostream(input/output stream).ios is declared as the virtual base class so that only one copy
of its members are inherited by the iostream.
ii. setf() function: This function is used to specify format flags that can control the form
of output display ( such as left-justification) and (right justification). The syntax is:
setf(arg1,arg2);

iv. Writing objects to a file: C++ allows us to read from and write to the disk files
objects directly. The binary function write() is used to write object to files. The function write
copies a class object from memory byte to byte with no conversion. It writes only the data
members and the member functions.

Ans:
(i) int* q=p;
the value of p will be assigned to pointer q which will be treated as an address.
int n=*p;
in this an integer variable n is initialized with the value stored at the address to which the
pointer p points.
(ii) A constructor is a member function which is used to initialize the data members of a
class. It has the same name as that of the class. It does not have any return type and is invoked
automatically on the creation of an object.
test() //constructor for the class test
A destructor is a member function that is used to destroy the objects that’s have been created by
the constructor. It frees the memory space for future use. It also has no return type but its
declaration is preceded by a tilde.
~test(); //destructor function
120
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
(iii) The keywords public and private are visibility labels. When the data members of a class
are declared as private, then they will be visible only within the class. If we declare the class
members as public then it can be accessed from the outside world also. Private specifier is used
in data hiding which is the key feature of object oriented programming. The use of the keyword
private is optional. When no specifier is used the data member is private by default. If all the
data members of a class are declared as private then such a class is completely hidden from the
outside world and does not serve any purpose.
(iv) In earlier version of C++ when an increment operator was overloaded there was no way of
knowing whether the operator precedes or follows its operand. That is assuming that the two
statement ob++ and ++ob had identical meanings. However the modern specification for C++
has defined a way through which compiler distinguishes between these operator. For this two
versions were used. One defined as
(v) In C++ an abstract class is one which defines an interface, but does not necessarily provide
implementations for all its member functions. An abstract class is meant to be used as the base
class from which other classes are derived. The derived class is expected to provide
implementations for the member functions that are not implemented in the base class. A
derived class that implements all the missing functionality is called a concrete class.
(vi) get() function extracts a character from the stream and returns its value (casted to an
integer).The C++ string class defines the global function getline() to read strings from an I/O
stream. The getline() function reads a line from is and stores it into s. If a character delimiter is
specified, then getline() will use delimiter to decide when to stop reading data. Example:
getline(cin, s);
(vii)The difference between inheritance and composition is the difference between “is-a” and
“has-a”. For example, we would not design a “car” object to be inherited from “engine”,
“chassis”, “transmission”, and so on (“car is-a engine” makes no sense). We would “compose”
the car object from its constituent parts (“car has-a engine” makes a lot of sense). Once we start
thinking in terms of “is-a” versus "has-a", it's a lot easier to do proper design.

Q.129 Discuss the role of inheritance in object-oriented programming. What is public, private and
protected derivation? (8)
Ans:
Inheritance: it is the property by which one class can be derived from another class such that it
acquires the properties of its base class. Just like a child inherits the properties of its parents in
the same way OOP allows us to reuse the members and functions of class to be derived by
another class. There are many different kinds of inheritance like multiple inheritance,
multilevel inheritance and hierarchical inheritance.
The visibility mode specified while declaring a derived class plays a very important role in the
access control of the data members of the class. The visibility mode is one of the three
keywords: public, private and protected. These access specifiers determine how elements of the
base class are inherited by the derived class. When the access specifier for the inherited base
class is public, all public members of the base class become public members of the derived
class. If the access specifier is private, all public members of the base class become private
members for the derived class. Access specifier is optional. In case of a derived ‘class’ it is
private by default. In case of a derived ‘structure’ it is public by default.
The protected specifier is equivalent to the private specifier with the exception that protected
members of a base class are accessible to members of any class derived from the base. Outside
the base or derived class, protected members are not accessible. The protected specifier can
appear anywhere in the class.
When a protected member of a base class is inherited as public by the derived class, it becomes
protected member of the derived class. If the base is inherited a private, the protected member
of the base becomes private member of the derived class.

Ans:
Polymorphism
Polymorphism is the property of representing one operation into many different forms. One
operation may express different in different situations. The process of making a function or an
operator behave in different manners is known as overloading the function or the operator.
Polymorphism is one of the most useful features of object oriented programming. It can be
achieved both at run time and at compile time. At compile time polymorphism is achieved
using function overloading and operator overloading. At the time of compilation the compiler
knows about the exact matching as to which function to call or invoke. This is known as
compile time polymorphism or early binding.
Polymorphism can also be achieved at run time. This is done using the concept of virtual
functions. Which class function is to be invoked is decided at run time and then the
corresponding object of that class is created accordingly. This is also called as late binding.
The following example program explains how polymorphism can be accomplished using
function overloading.

Q.132 What do you mean by static variable and static function? Give an example?
(5)
Ans: Static class member variables are used commonly by the entire class. It stores values. No
different copy of a static variable is made for each object. It is shared by all the objects. It is
just like the C static variables.
• It has the following characteristics:
• On the creation of the first object of the class a static variable is always initialized by zero.
• All the objects share the single copy of a static variable.
• The scope is only within the class but its lifetime is through out the program.
A static function is just like a static variable. a static function has the following properties:
• A function can access only the static variable where both belong to the same class.
• A static function is called using the class name directly and not the object like
class-name :: function-name;
The example given below demonstrates the use of static variable ‘count’ and static function
‘display()’:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class demo
{
int num;
static int count;
public:
void set(void)
{
num=++count;
}
void show(void)
{
cout<<"Number : "<< num<<"\n";
}
static void display(void)
{
cout<<"count : "<<count<<"\n";
}
};
int demo::count;
int main()
{
demo d1,d2;
d1.set();
d2.set();
demo::display();//accessing static function
demo d3;
d3.set();
d1.show();

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
d2.show();
d3.show();
return 0;

Q.133 Write a template function to find the maximum number from a template array of size N.

void max(T a[],T &m, int n)
{
for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
if(a[i]>m)
m=a[i];
}
int main()
{
int x[5]={10,50,30,40,20};
int m=x[0];
max(x,m,5);
cout<<"\n The maximum value is : "<<m;
return 0;
}
Ans: Object Oriented Programming (OOP) is an approach that provides a way of modularizing
programs by creating partitioned memory area for both data and functions that can be used as
templates for creating copies of such modules on demand.
Following are the basic characteristics of Object Oriented Programming:
• Encapsulation: The wrapping up of data and functions into a single unit is called
encapsulation. The data can only be accessed by the function with which they have been
tied up and not by the outside world. It creates an interface between the object’s data and
the program.
• Inheritance: It is the property by which one class can be derived from another class such
that it acquires the properties of its base class. Just like a child inherits the properties of its
parents in the same way OOP allows us to reuse the members and functions of class to be
derived by another class. There are many different kinds of inheritance like multiple
inheritance, multilevel inheritance and hierarchical inheritance.

Q.135 What is meant by exceptions? How an exception is handled in C++? Explain with the help
of an example. (4)
Ans:
Exception Handling: Using exception handling we can more easily manage and respond to run
time errors. C++ exception handling is built upon 3 keywords: try, catch and throw.
• The ‘try’ block contains program statements that we want to monitor for exceptions.
• The ‘throw’ block throws an exception to the ‘catch’ block if it occurs within the try block.
• The ‘catch’ blocks proceeds on the exception thrown by the ‘throw’ block.
When an exception is thrown, it is caught by its corresponding catch statement which processes
the exception. There can be more that one catch statement associated with a try. The catch
statement that is used is determined by the type of the exception. An example below illustrates
the working of the three blocks.
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout<<"\n Start "<<endl;
try
{
cout<<"\n Inside try block "<<endl;
throw 10;
cout<<"\n this will not execute ";
}
catch(int i)
{
cout<<"\n catch number "<<endl;
cout<<i<<endl;
}
cout<<"End";
return 0;
}

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Q.136 What do you mean by operator overloading? How unary and binary operators are
implemented using the member and friend functions? (8)
Ans: When an operator is overloaded it doesn’t lose its original meaning but it gains an
additional meaning relative to the class for which it is defined. We can overload unary and
binary operators using member and friend functions.
When a member operator function overloads a binary operator the function will have only one
parameter. This parameter will receive the object that is on right of the operator. The object on
the left side is the object that generates the call to the operator function and is passed implicitly
by “this”.
Overloading a unary operator is similar to overloading a binary operator except that there is
only one operand to deal with. When you overload a unary operator using a member function
the function has no parameter. Since there is only one operand, it is this operand that generates
the call to the operator function.
Overloading operator using a friend function: as we know that a friend function does not have a
‘this’ pointer. Thus in case of overloading a binary operator two arguments are passed to a
friend operator function. For unary operator, single operand is passed explicitly. We cannot use
a friend function to overload an assignment operator(=).
Q.137 Explain the importance of using friend function in operator overloading with the help of an
example. (4)
Ans: We can overload operators using both member function and friend functions. There are
certain cases when we prefer using a friend function more than a member function. For
examples suppose we wish to pass two different types of operands to the operator function, one
of the operands may be an object and the other may be an integer. In case of overloading a
binary operator:
A = ob + 4; or A = ob * 2;
The above statement is valid for both a member function and a friend function. But the opposite
is not valid for a member function:
A = 4 + ob; or A = 2 * ob;
This statement is valid only in case of a friend function. This is because the left hand operand
should be an object as it is used to invoke a member operator function.
The following program illustrates the use of a friend function:
#include<iostream.h>
class coord
{
int x,y;
public:
coord()
{
x=0;y=0;
}
131
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
coord(int i,int j)
{
x=i;y=j;
}
void get_xy(int &i,int &j)
{
i=x;j=y;
}
friend coord operator +(int n,coord ob);
}
coord operator +(int n,coord ob)
{
coord temp;
temp.x= n + ob.x;
temp.y= n + ob.y;
return temp;
}
int main()
{
coord ob(5,3),obj;
int x,y,n;
obj = n + obj;
obj.get_xy(x,y);
cout<<"\n x = "<<x<<"\n y = "<<y;
return 0;
}

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Ans:
(i) Nested class:
Inheritance, one of the major features of OOP, is to derive certain properties of the base class
in the derived class. A derived class can make use of all the public data members of its base
classes.
When one class is defined inside another class, it is known as containership or nesting. It is also
one of the inheriting properties. We can thus imply that one object can be a collection of many
different objects. Both the concepts i.e. inheritance and containership have a vast difference.
Creating an object that contains many objects is different from creating an independent object.
First the member objects are created in the order in which their constructors occur in the body.
Then the constructor of the main body is executed. An initialization list of the nested class is
provided in the constructor. In the following example the arglist is the list of arguments that is
to be supplied when a gamma object is defined. These parameters are used to define the
members of gamma. The arglist1 and arglist2 are meant for the constructors a and b
respectively.
class alpha{....};
class beta{....};
class gamma
{
alpha a;
beta b;
public:
gamma(arglist): a(arglist1), b(arglist2)
{
//constructor body
}
};
(ii). Scope Resolution Operator:
The :: (scope resolution) operator is used to qualify hidden names so that we can use them. We
can use the unary scope operator if a namespace scope or global scope name is hidden by an
explicit declaration of the same name in a block or class. For example:
int count = 0;
138
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
int main(void) {
int count = 0;
::count = 1; // set global count to 1
count = 2; // set local count to 2
return 0;
}
The declaration of count declared in the main() function hides the integer named count declared
in global namespace scope. The statement ::count = 1 accesses the variable named count
declared in global namespace scope.
We also use the class scope operator to qualify class names or class member names. If a class
member name is hidden, we can use it by qualifying it with its class name and the class scope
operator.
In the following example, the declaration of the variable X hides the class type X, but you can
still use the static class member count by qualifying it with the class type X and the scope
resolution operator.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class X
{
public:
static int count;
};
int X::count = 10; // define static data member
int main ()
{
int X = 0; // hides class type X
cout << X::count << endl; // use static member of class X
}

Q.147 How is the working of member function different from friend function and a non member
function? (6)
Ans: A member function, a non –member function and a friend function, all the three are
entirely different from each other.
A member function is that which is declared and defined inside the class. It has full access to
the private data members of a class. We can directly access the data members without taking
the help of the object. It is not the case with a friend function. Although it can access the
private data members of the class it has to take the help of the object of that class. A friend
function is not the member of the class. When we create an object of a class, memory is not
allocated for the friend function. It is defined like a normal function. While calling a friend
function we not use object as friend function is not the part of the object. Thus is called like any
normal non member function.
A non member function cannot access the private members of a class. It is not declared inside
the class definition.
145
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Ans: A pure virtual function has no definition related to the base class. Only the function
prototype is included. To make a pure virtual function the following syntax is used:
virtual return_type function_name(par_list) = 0;
when a class contains atleast one pure virtual function then it is called an abstract class.
The following is an example program:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class area
{
double dim1,dim2;
public:
void set_area(int d1,int d2)
{
dim1=d1;
dim2=d2;
}
void get_dim(double &d1,double &d2)
{
d1=dim1;
d2=dim2;
}
virtual double get_area()=0;
};
class rectangle: public area
{
public:
double get_area()
{
double d1,d2;
get_dim(d1,d2);
return d1*d2;
}
};
class triangle: public area
{
public:
double get_area()
{
double d1,d2;
get_dim(d1,d2);
return 0.5*d1*d2;
}
};
146
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
int main()
{
area *p
rectangle r;
triangle t;
r.set_area(3.3,4.5);
t.set_area(4.0,5.0);
p=&r;
cout<<"\n the area of rectangle is "<<p->get_area()<<endl;
p=&t;
cout<<"\n area of triangle is "<<p->get_area()<<endl;
return 0;
}
Q.149 Discuss the various situations when a copy constructor is automatically invoked. (6)
Ans:
A copy constructor is invoked in many situations:
• When an object is used to initialize another in a declaration statement.
• When an object is passed as a parameter to a function.
• When a temporary object is created for use as a return value of a function.
A copy constructor only applies to initialization. It does not apply to assignment.
Class-name(const class name ob)
{
//body of copy constructor
}
When an object is passed to a function a bitwise copy of that objet is made and given to the
function parameter that receives the object. However there are cases in which this identical
copy is not desired. For example, if the object contains a pointer to allocated memory. The
copy will point to same memory as does the original object. Therefore, if the copy makes a
change to the content of this memory it will be changed for the original object too. Also when
the function terminates the copy will be destroyed causing its destructor to be called.

Q.151 Define Rules for operator Overloading. Write a program to overload the subscript operator
‘[ ]’. (8)
Ans:
The rules for operator overloading are as follows:
• New operators are not created. Only the current operators are overloaded.
• The overloaded operator must have at least one operand of user defined type.
• We cannot alter the basic meaning of the operator.
• When binary operators are overloaded through a member function then the left hand
operand is implicitly passed as and thus it must be an object.
• Unary operators when overloaded through member functions will not take any explicit
argument.
The subscript operator can be overloaded only by means of a member function:
#include<iostream.h>
const int size=5;
class arrtype
{
int a[size];
public:
arrtype()
{
int i;
for(i=0;i<size;i++)
a[i]=i;
}
int operator [](int i)
{
return a[i];
}
};
int main()
{
arrtype ob;
int i;
for(i=0;i<size;i++)
cout<<ob[i]<<" ";
return 0;
}
Q.152 How is a class converted into another class? Explain with one example. (8)
Ans: C++ allows us to convert one class type to another class type. For example
obj1 = obj2;
148
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
}
invent2(int x,float y)
{
code=x;
value=y;
}
void putdata()
{
cout<<"Code : "<<code<<"\n";
cout<<"Value : "<<value<<"\n\n";
}
invent2(invent1 p)
{
code=p.getcode();
value=p.getitems()*p.getprice();
}
};
int main()
{
invent1 s1(115,9,178.6);
invent2 d1;
float total_value;
total_value=s1;
d1=s1;
cout<<"\n Product details - invent1 type"<<"\n";
s1.putdata();
cout<<"\n Stock Value"<<"\n";
cout<<"\n Value = "<<total_value<<"\n";
cout<<"\n Protype details - invent2 type"<<"\n";
d1.putdata();
return 0;
}
Q.153 How does visibility mode control the access of members in the derived class? Explain with
an example. (6)
Ans:
The visibility mode specified while declaring a derived class plays a very important role in the
access control of the data members of the class. The visibility mode is one of the three
keywords: public, private and protected. These access specifiers determine how elements of the
base class are inherited by the derived class. When the access specifier for the inherited base
class is public, all public members of the base class become public members of the derived
class. If the access specifier is private, all public members of the base class become private
members for the derived class. Access specifier is optional. In case of a derived ‘class’ it is
private by default. In case of a derived ‘structure’ it is public by default.
150
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
The protected specifier is equivalent to the private specifier with the exception that protected
members of a base class are accessible to members of any class derived from the base. Outside
the base or derived class, protected members are not accessible. The protected specifier can
appear anywhere in the class.
When a protected member of a base class is inherited as public by the derived class, it becomes
protected member of the derived class. If the base is inherited a private, the protected member
of the base becomes private member of the derived class.
Example:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class one
{
int x;
public:
int y;
void get_xy();
int get_x(void);
void dis_x(void);
};
class two: public one
{
int z;
public:
void prod(void);
void display(void);
};
void one:: get_xy(void)
{
x=7;
y=9;
}
int one:: get_x()
{
return x;
}
void one::dis_x()
{
cout<<"x= "<<x<<"\n";
}
void two::prod()
{
z=y*get_x;
}
void two::display()
{
cout<<"x= "<<get_x()<<"\n";
151
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
cout<<"y= "<<y<<"\n";
cout<<"z= "<<z<<"\n";
}
int main()
{
two m;
m.get_xy();
m.prod();
m.dis_x();
m.display();
d.prod();
d.display();
return 0;
}
Q.154 What is run time polymorphism? How it is achieved? Explain with an example? (4)
Ans: Polymorphism is one of the most useful features of object oriented programming.
Polymorphism means to have many forms of one name. it can be achieved both at run time and
at compile time.
Polymorphism can also be achieved at run time. This is done using the concept of virtual
functions. Which class’ function is to be invoked is decided at run time. And then the
corresponding object of that class is created accordingly. This is also called as late binding.
For this concept we always need to make use of pointers to objects.

Q.156 Write a program having a base class Student with data member rollno and member
functions getnum() to input rollno and putnum() to display rollno.
A class Test is derived from class Student with data member marks and member functions
getmarks() to input marks and putmarks() to display marks. Class Sports is also derived
from class Student with data member score and member functions getscore() to input score
and putscore() to display score. The class Result is inherited from two base classes, class
Test and class Sports with data member total and a member function display() to display
rollno, marks, score and the total(marks + score). (12)

Q.158 What are generic classes? Why are they useful? Explain with an example how these are
implemented in c++. (8)
Ans:
Generic class:
When we declare a generic class we are able to define all algorithms used by that class but the
actual type data being manipulated will be specified as a parameter when object of that class is
created. Generic classes are useful when a class contains generalised logic. For example the
algorithm that is used to maintain a queue of integer can also be used for a queue of character.
The compiler will automatically generate the correct type of object based upon the type you
specify when the object is created. General form generic class:
template <class type> class class-name
{
//body;
}
Here the type is place holder type-name that will be specified when the object of the class is
created. We can define more than one generic data-type by using comma separated list.
To create an object
Class-name <type> ob;
Member functions of a generic class are themselves automatically generic. They need not be
explicitly specified by using template.

Q.159 Explain the following functions(with example) for manipulating file pointers:
seekg(),seekp(),tellg(),tellp(). (8)
Ans: A file pointer is used to navigate through a file. We can control this movement of the file
pointer by ourselves. The file stream class supports the following functions to manage such
situations.
• seekg ():moves get pointer (input) to a specified location.
• seekp ():moves put pointer (output) to a specified location.
• tellg ():gives the current position of the get pointer.
• tellp (): gives the current position of the put pointer.
For example:
infile.seekg (10);will move the file pointer to the byte number 10.
ofstream fileout;
fileout.open(“morning”, ios::app);
int p = fileout.tellp();
the above statements will move the output pointer to the end of the file morning and the value
seekg and seekp can also be used with two arguments as follows.
where offset referes to the number of bytes the file pointer is to be moved from the location
158
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
Ans:
(i)
ios
iostream
The above hierarchy of classes are used to define various streams which deals with both the
console and disc files. These classes are declared in the header file iostream. Ios is the base for
istream, ostream and iostream base classes. Ios is declared as a virtual base class so that only
one copy of its members are inherited by the iostream. The three classes istream_withassign,
ostream_withassign and iostream_withassign are used to add assignment operators to these
classes.
ii) Exception Handling:
using exception handling we can more easily manage and respond to run time errors. C++
exception handling is built upon 3 keywords: try, catch and throw.
• The ‘try’ block contains program statements that we want to monitor for exceptions.
• The ‘throw’ block throws an exception to the ‘catch’ block if it occurs within the try
block.
• The ‘catch’ block proceeds on the exception thrown by the ‘throw’ block.
When an exception is thrown, it is caught by its corresponding catch statement which processes
the exception. there can be more that one catch statement associated with a try. The catch
statement that is used is determined by the type of the exception. An example illustrates the
working of the three blocks.
159
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
#include<iostream.h>
int main()
try
throw 10;
catch(int i)
cout<<i<<endl;
cout<<"End";

Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
When a class contains at least one pure virtual function, it is referred to as an abstract class. An
abstract class is something which is to be hidden by people and on which modifications can be
done in future. Since an abstract class contains at least one function for which no body exists,
technically it can be considered as incomplete and therefore no object is created. Thus we can
also define an abstract class as a class for which no object is created. We may conclude that an
abstract class exists only to be inherited. We may still create pointer to an abstract class. In the
following example, class area is an abstract class because it has a pure virtual function
get_area().
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class area
{
double dim1,dim2;
public:
void set_area(int d1,int d2)
{
dim1=d1;
dim2=d2;
}
void get_dim(double &d1,double &d2)
{
d1=dim1;
d2=dim2;
}
virtual double get_area()=0;
};
Q.161 What are the benefits of object oriented programming? Explain. (8)
Ans:
Object Oriented Programming (OOP) is an approach that provides a way of modulating
programs by creating partitioned memory area for both data and functions that can be used as
templates for creating copies of such modules on demand.
The advantages of OOP are as follows:
• Function and data both are tied together in a single unit.
• Data is not accessible by external functions as it is hidden.
• Objects may communicate with each other only through functions.
• It is easy to add new data and functions whenever required.
• It can model real world problems very well.
161
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
• Though inheritance we can eliminate redundant code and extend the use of existing classes.
• The principle of data hiding helps the programmer to build secure programs that cannot be
invaded by code in other parts of the program.
• It is possible to have multiple instances of an object to co-exist without any interference.
• The data centric design approach enables us to capture more details of a model in
implemented form.
• It is possible to map objects in the problem domain to those in the program.
• Message passing techniques for communication between objects makes the interface
descriptions with external systems much simpler.
• Software complexity can be managed.
Q.162 Explain Inline functions and the situations where inline expansion may not work and why?
(8)
Ans: Inline functions: Whenever we write functions, there are certain costs associated with it
such as jumping to the function, saving registers, pushing arguments into the stack and
returning to the calling function. To remove this overhead we write an inline function. It is a
sort of request to the compiler. If we declare and define a function within the class definition
then it is automatically inline. We do not need to sue the term inline.
Advantage of inline functions is that they have no overhead associated with function call or
return mechanism.
The disadvantage is that if the function made inline is too large and called regularly our
program grows larger.
There are certain conditions in which an inline function may not work:
• If a function is returning some value and it contains a loop, a switch or a goto statement.
• If a function is not returning a value and it contains a return statement.
• If a function contains a static variable.
• If the inline function is made recursive.

Q.166 Is it possible that a function is friend of two different classes? If yes, then how it is
implemented in C++. (8)
Ans: Yes, it is possible that a function can be a friend of two classes. Member functions of one
class can be friend with another class. This is done by defining the function using the scope
resolution operator.
We can also declare all the member functions of one class as the friend functions of another
class. In fact we can also declare all the member functions of a class as friend. Such a class is
then known as friend class.
The following program shows how a friend function can be a friend of two classes:
#include<iostream.h>

class one;
class two
{
int a;
public:
void setvalue(int n){a=n;}

Q.168 What is the difference between a virtual function and a pure virtual function? Give example
of each. (8)
Ans: Virtual functions are important because they support polymorphism at run time. A virtual
function is a member function that is declared within the base class but redefined inside the
derived class. To create a virtual function we precede the function declaration with the keyword
virtual. Thus we can assume the model of “one interface multiple method”. The virtual function
within the base class defines the form of interface to that function. It happens when a virtual
function is called through a pointer.
The following is an example that illustrates the use of a virtual function:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class base
{
public:
int i;
base(int x)
{
i=x;
}
virtual void func()
{
cout<<"\n using base version of function";
cout<<i<<endl;
}
};
class derived: public base
{
public:
derived(int x):base(x){}
169
Code: AC11 Subject: OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
void func()
{
cout<<"\n sing derived version";
cout<<i*i<<endl;
}
};
class derived1: public base
{
public:
derived1(int x): base(x){}
void func()
{
cout<<"\n using derived1 version";
cout<<i+i<<endl;
}
};
int main()
{
base *p;

A pure virtual function has no definition related to the base class. Only the function prototype
is included to make a pure virtual function the following syntax is used:
virtual return_type function_name(par_list) = 0;
The following is an example program:
#include<iostream.h>
using namespace std;
class area
{
double dim1,dim2;
public:
void set_area(int d1,int d2)
{
dim1=d1;
dim2=d2;
}

Q.172 How does inheritance influence the working of constructor and destructor?
Given the following set of definitions
Class x
{
};
class y: public x
{
};
class z: public y
{
};
z obj;
What order will the constructor and destructor be invoked? (8)
Ans: Inheritance has a great deal of influence over the working of constructors and destructors.
In case of inheritance the base class constructor is invoked first and then the derived class
constructor. In case of multiple inheritance, the constructors of base classes are executed in the
order in which they occur in the declaration in the derived class. Similarly in case of multilevel
inheritance, the base class constructors are executed in the order of their inheritance.
Destructors in case of inheritance are executed exactly in the opposite order in which
constructors are executed. Likewise in case of multilevel inheritance destructors are executed in
the reverse of that is, from derived to base.
class x
{
};
class y: public x
{
};
class z: public y
{
};
z obj;
In the above definitions, the contructor will be fired in the following sequence-
class x class y class z
similarly, destructors will be fired exactly in the reverse sequence-
class z class y class x
Q.173 What is meant by a constant member function? How is it declared? Give an example.
(8)
Ans: Constant Member functions : A const member function is that which does alter the
value of any data in the program. It is declared as follows:
void area(int, int) const;
float dis() const;
when a const function tries to alter any data ,the compiler generates an error message.
