Key Learnings from the Module

1. Core C++ Concepts:

• Namespaces for organizing code.
• Classes and encapsulation for structured programming.
• Static and const members for shared and immutable data.
• Initialization lists for efficient object construction.
• Streams and I/O formatting for user-friendly output.

2. Practical Applications:

• Exercise 00 (BraiiiiiiinnnzzzZ):
  • Zombie class, stack vs. heap allocation, and debugging with destructors.
• Exercise 01 (Moar brainz!):
  • Creating and managing zombie hordes with memory management.
• Exercise 02 (HI THIS IS BRAIN):
  • Pointers vs. references and memory address handling.
• Exercise 03 (Unnecessary violence):
  • Weapon and Human classes with dynamic weapon type changes.
• Exercise 04 (Sed is for losers):
  • String manipulation and file I/O for replacing occurrences in files.
• Exercise 05 (Harl 2.0):
  • Automating complaints using member function pointers.
• Exercise 06 (Harl filter):
  • Filtering complaints using switch statements.

3. Best Practices:

• Encapsulation for controlled data access.
• Reusability through modular design.
• Proper memory management to avoid leaks.

Takeaway:

This module provides a strong foundation in C++ by covering memory management, class design, pointers, references, and practical applications of core concepts.
