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.
