When	Lecture	Test/Homework	Lab	Reading
Week 1 Aug 20–24, 2018	Syllabus SDC (formerly RDS) Understanding Fortran ⇒ Algol ⇒ CPL ⇒ BCPL ⇒ C ⇒ C++ References: http://cplusplus.com https://cppreference.com Requirements Standards How I Compile C ⊂ C++ Basic syntax Java/C++ traps Order of evaluation C++ pet peeves Not fully specified behavior Variable scope	Discuss HW0 IQ01 HW0 due Wed 10:00ᴘᴍ Discuss HW1; assignments build	Commands Lab	All reading is from Weiss Ch. 0: Introduction Ch. 1: Basic Types & Control Structures Do the reading before class for the week.
Week 2 Aug 27–31, 2018	Testing Memory segments const & `constexpr` using namespace std; Header files Intro to I/O streams Casting string vs. C-style strings (example) `getline` vs. «istream::getline(cpp)» Functions Passing arrays to functions call-by value/reference/const reference	IQ02 HW1 due Sat 10:00ᴘᴍ	Bash Lab	Ch. 2: Functions, Arrays, Strings, Param. Passing
Week 3 Sep 3–7, 2018	vector vs. C-style arrays methods Container sizes Pointers & references pointers/references and addresses Dynamic memory Memory leaks Dangling pointers Heckendorn’s Law String Literals Local static variables Limits	Discuss HW2 IQ03 Test Etiquette Quiz 1 Thursday	STL Lab	Ch. 3: Pointers, References, new & delete Section 11.5: Cmd-Line Arguments

Week 5 Sep 17–21, 2018	Keep it DRY C++ is extensible, not mutable Operator overloading, member vs. non-member Review for midterm	Discuss HW3 IQ05 First midterm Thursday	Linked List Lab	Ch. 5: Operator Overloading
Week 6 Sep 24–28, 2018	Review the midterm Inheritance (Is-a) vs. composition (Has-a) Inheritance access `typedef` for base class alias instead of `super` Calling methods in base class (example): Base class in initialization list copy ctor in derived class calls copy ctor in base class `operator=` in derived class calls `operator=` in base class (example) Slicing Intro to stringstreams Increment Methods (decrement, too) `operator++` & `operator++(int)` in greek & Complex Virtual functions (example) Polymorphism (example) Factory method example `dynamic_cast` (example) Include guards Separate compilation Namespace pollution (example)	IQ06 HW3 due Sat 10:00ᴘᴍ	Debugging Lab	Ch. 6: Inheritance
Week 7 Oct 1–5, 2018	Unicode Bit manipulation Operator functions `private` (lousy default)/`public`/`protected` inheritance Multiple inheritance (example) Friendship is not inherited There is no `Object` class. Reflection Virtual inheritance and The Dreaded Diamond Multiple inheritance examples Programming paradigms: Imperative programming Declarative programming Functional programming Event-driven programming (examples)	Discuss HW4 IQ07	Valgrind Lab
Week 8 Oct 8–12, 2018	Old-fashioned error handling Exception handling The <stdexcept> header file. Smart pointers Namespaces Symbol Ambiguity	IQ08 Quiz 2 Thursday HW4 due Sat 10:00ᴘᴍ	Coverage Lab	Ch. 8: Abnormal Control Flow

Week 10 Oct 22–26, 2018	Rule of Three (or is it Five?) (example) Self-assignment (example) Interpreting g++ syntax errors RAII/CADRe a Design Pattern Acquisition - Use - Release Use RAII when you think “Don’t forget to ...” Simplicity of description/state Immune to early return/throw Examples: unique_ptr (example) file handle / socket / database / other OS resources mutex (lock) list membership Mixins (example) Review for midterm	IQ10 Second midterm Thursday HW5 due Sat 10:00ᴘᴍ	I/O Lab
Week 11 Oct 29 – Nov 2, 2018	Review second midterm Templates Templates use Duck Typing A class can provide: methods, variables, constants, types Iterators STL containers: string vector / array list / forward_list (example) (unofficially `slist`) set / multiset (example) map / multimap (example) deque (oddly, not dequeue) stack queue unordered_set (example) / unordered_multiset unordered_map / unordered_multimap (unofficially `hash_set` / `hash_map`)	Discuss HW6 IQ11	Subversion Lab	Ch. 7: Templates
Week 12 Nov 5–9, 2018	STL containers, continued: pair and make_pair (example) Lambda functions Functors algorithms find (example) find_if (predicate example) (lambda example) copy (example) copy_if The sort algorithm Using a functor	IQ12 HW6 due Sat 10:00ᴘᴍ	Template Lab
