{
private :
variable declaration;
function declaration;
public:
variable declaration;
function declaration;
}

Data hiding in classes

Simple class program
Creating objects
Accessing class members
 Access specifies
private
public
protector
default - private
 5.3 Defining Member Functions

5.4 Making an Outside Function Inline
class item
{
......
......
public:
void getdata(int a,float b);
};
inline void item :: getdata(int a,float b)
{
number=a;
cost=b;
}

5.5 Nesting of Member Functions
#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
class data
{
int rollno,maths,science;
int avg();
public: void getdata();
void putdata();
};
main()
{
clrscr();
data stud[5];
for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
stud[i].getdata();
}
void data::getdata()
{
cout<<"Please enter rollno:";
cin>>rollno;
cout<<"Please enter maths marks:";
cin>>maths;
cout<<"Please enter science marks:";
cin>>science;
putdata();
}
int data::avg()
{
int a; a=(maths+science)/2;
return a;
}
void data::putdata()
{
cout<<"Average is :"<<avg()<<endl;
}

5.7 Arrays within a Class
const int size=10;
class array
{
int a[size];
public:
void setval(void);
void display(void);
};

Ex-
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
const int val=50;
class ITEM
{
private:
int item_code[val];
int item_price[val];
int count;
public:
void initiliaze();
void get_item();
void display_item();
void display_sum();
void remove();
};
void ITEM::initiliaze()
{
count=0;
}
void ITEM::get_item()
{
cout<<"Enter the Item code == "<<endl;
cin>>item_code[count];
cout<<"Enter the Item cost == "<<endl;
cin>>item_price[count];
count++;
}
void ITEM::display_sum()
{
int sum=0;
for(int i=0; i<count;i++)
{
sum=sum + item_price[i];
}
cout<<"The Total Value Of The Cost Is ==
"<<sum<<endl;
}

void ITEM::display_item()
{
cout<<"nCode Pricen";
for(int k=0;k<count;k++)
{
cout<<"n"<<item_code[k];
cout<<" "<<item_price[k];
}
}
void ITEM::remove()
{
int del;
cout<<"Enter the code you want to remove == ";
cin>>del;
for(int search=0; search<count; search++)
{
if(del == item_code[search])
{
item_price[search]=0;
item_code[search]=0;
}
}
}

int main()
{
ITEM order;
order.initiliaze();
int x;
do
{
cout<<"nnYou have the following opton";
cout<<"nEnter the Appropriate number";
cout<<"nnPress 1 for ADD AN ITEMS";
cout<<"nnPress 2 for DISPLAY TOTAL
VALUE";
cout<<"nnPress 3 for DELETE AN
ITEM";
cout<<"nnPress 4 for DISPLAY ALL
ITEMS";
cout<<"nnPress 5 for QUIT";
cout<<"nEnter The Desired Number ==
n";
cin>>x;
switch(x)
{
case 1:
{
order.get_item();
break;
}
case 2:
{
order.display_sum();
break;
}
case 3:
{
order.remove();
break;
}
case 4:
{
order.display_item();
break;
}

case 5:
break;
default: cout<<"Incorrect option Please
Press the right number == ";
}
}while(x!=5);
getchar();
return 0;
}

5.8 Memory Allocation for Objects
common for all objects
member function 1
member function 2 memory created when
function defined
Object 1 object 2 object 3
Member varible 1 member variable 2 member
variable 1
Member variable 2 member variable 2 member variable 2
memory created
when objects defined

5.9 Static Data Members, Static Member
 A data member of a class can be
qualified as static.
 The properties of a static member
variable are similar to that of a C static
variable.
 It is initialized to zero when the first
object of its class is created. No other
initialization is permitted.
 Only one copy of that member is created
for the entire class and is shared by all
the objects of that class, no matter how
many objects are created.
 It is visible only within the class, but its
lifetime is the entire program.

#include
class item
{
static int count;
int number;
public:
void getdata(int a)
{
number = a;
count ++;
}
void getcount(void)
{
cout << "Count: ";
cout << count <<"n";
}
};
int item :: count;
int main()
{
item a,b,c;
a.getcount();
b.getcount();
c.getcount();
a.getdata(100);
b.getdata(200);
c.getdata(300);
cout << "After reading
data"<<"n";
a.getcount();
b.getcount();
c.getcount();
return 0;
}

#include
class item
{
static int count;
int number;
public:
void getdata(int a)
{
number = a;
count ++;
}
void getcount(void)
{
cout << "Count: ";
cout << count <<"n";
}
};
int item :: count;
int main()
{
item a,b,c;
a.getcount();
b.getcount();
c.getcount();
a.getdata(100);
b.getdata(200);
c.getdata(300);
cout << "After reading
data"<<"n";
a.getcount();
b.getcount();
c.getcount();
return 0;
}
The output of
the program
would be:
Count: 0
Count: 0
Count: 0
After reading
data
Count: 3
Count: 3
Count: 3

Sharing of a static data
member

Static member function
 A member function that is declared
static has following properties
1. A static function can have access to
only other static members (functions
or variables) declared in the same
class.
2. A static member function can be
called using the class name (instead
of its objects ) as follows :
class – name :: function – name;3/11/2016 18By:-Gourav Kottawar

class Something
{
private:

class IDGenerator
{

static int s_nNextID;
public:
static int GetNextID() { return
s_nNextID++; }
};
// We'll start generating IDs at 1
int IDGenerator::s_nNextID = 1;
int main()
{
for (int i=0; i < 5; i++)
cout << "The next ID is: " <<
IDGenerator::GetNextID() << endl;
return 0;
}
The next ID is: 1
The next ID is: 2
The next ID is: 3
The next ID is: 4
The next ID is: 5

{
for (int i=0; i < 5; i++)
cout << "The next ID is: " << IDGenerator::GetNextID() <<
endl;
return 0;

Array of object

5.11 Object as Function Arguments
 Two ways
1. A copy of the entire object is passed
to the function.
i.e. pass by value
2. Only the address of the object is
transferred to the function
i.e. pass by reference

3/11/2016 25
#include <iostream>
class Complex
{
private: int real;
int imag;
public:
void Read()
{
cout<<"Enter real and imaginary number
respectively:"<<endl; cin>>real>>imag;
}
void Add(Complex comp1,Complex comp2)
{
real=comp1.real+comp2.real;
/* Here, real represents the real data of object c3 because this function is
called using code c3.add(c1,c2); */
imag=comp1.imag+comp2.imag;
/* Here, imag represents the imag data of object c3 because this function
is called using code c3.add(c1,c2); */
}

}
};

c1.Read();
c2.Read();
c3.Add(c1,c2);
c3.Display();
return 0;
}

}
Complex Add(Complex comp2)
{
Complex temp;
temp.real=real+comp2.real;
/* Here, real represents the real data of object c1 because this
function is called using code c1.Add(c2) */
temp.imag=imag+comp2.imag;
/* Here, imag represents the imag data of object c1 because this
function is called using code c1.Add(c2) */
return temp; 0;

5.12 Friend function
 Need
a data is declared as private inside a
class, then it is not accessible from
outside the class.
A function that is not a member or an
external class will not be able to access
the private data.
A programmer may have a situation
where he or she would need to access
private data from non-member functions
and external classes. For handling such
cases, the concept of Friend functions is
a useful tool.

What is a Friend Function?
 A friend function is used for accessing
the non-public members of a class.
 A class can allow non-
member functions and other classes to
access its own private data, by making
them friends.
 Thus, a friend function is an ordinary
function or a member of another class.

 General syntax
Class ABC
{
…..
…..
public :
…..
…..
Friend void func1(void);
};

Special Characteristics
 The keyword friend is placed only in the function declaration
of the friend function and not in the function definition.
 It is not in the scope of the class to which it has been declared
as friend.
 It is possible to declare a function as friend in any number of
classes.
 When a class is declared as a friend, the friend class has access
to the private data of the class that made this a friend.
 A friend function, even though it is not a member function,
would have the rights to access the private members of the
class.
 It is possible to declare the friend function as either private or
public without affecting meaning.
 The function can be invoked without the use of an object.
 It has object as argument.

3/11/2016 34
#include <iostream>
class exforsys
{
private:
int a,b;
public:
void test()
{
a=100;
b=200;
}
friend int compute(exforsys e1);
//Friend Function
Declaration with keyword friend and
with the object of class exforsys to
which it is friend passed to it
};
int compute(exforsys e1)
{
//Friend Function Definition
which has access to private data
return int(e1.a+e1.b)-5;
}
void main()
{
exforsys e;
e.test();
cout << "The result is:" <<
compute(e);
//Calling of Friend
Function with object as argument.
}

Constant Member Functions
 Declaring a member function with
the const keyword specifies that the
function is a "read-only" function that
does not modify the object for which it is
called.
 A constantmember function cannot
modify any non-static data members or
call any member functions that aren't
constant.
 The const keyword is required in both the
declaration and the definition.

Constant Member Functions –
EXclass Date
{
public:
Date( int mn, int dy, int yr );
int getMonth() const; // A
read-only function
void setMonth( int mn ); // A
write function; can't be const
private:
int month;
};
int Date::getMonth() const
{
return month; // Doesn't
modify anything
}
3/11/2016 36
void Date::setMonth( int mn )
{
month = mn; // Modifies data
member
}
int main()
{
Date MyDate( 7, 4, 1998 );
const Date BirthDate( 1, 18, 1953
); MyDate.setMonth( 4 ); // Okay
BirthDate.getMonth(); // Okay
BirthDate.setMonth( 4 ); // C2662
Error
}

5.14 Pointers to members
 Pointers to members allow you to refer to nonstatic
members of class objects.
 You cannot use a pointer to member to point to a static
class member because the address of a static member is
not associated with any particular object.
 To point to a static class member, you must use a
normal pointer.
 You can use pointers to member functions in the same
manner as pointers to functions.
 You can compare pointers to member functions, assign
values to them, and use them to call member functions.
 Note - a member function does not have the same type
as a nonmember function that has the same number
and type of arguments and the same return type.

5.14 Pointers to members - Ex
#include <iostream>
class X
{
public:
int a;
void f(int b)
{
cout << "The value of b is
"<< b << endl;
}
};
3/11/2016 38
int main()
{
// declare pointer to data member
int X::*ptiptr = &X::a;
// declare a pointer to member
function
void (X::* ptfptr) (int) = &X::f;
// create an object of class type X
X xobject;
// initialize data member
xobject.*ptiptr = 10;
cout << "The value of a is " <<
xobject.*ptiptr << endl;
// call member function
(xobject.*ptfptr) (20);
}

5.14 Local Classes
 A local class is declared within a function
definition.
 Declarations in a local class can only use type
names, enumerations, static variables from the
enclosing scope, as well as external variables and
functions.
 Member functions of a local class have to be
defined within their class definition, if they are
defined at all.
 As a result, member functions of a local class are
inline functions. Like all member functions, those
defined within the scope of a local class do not need
the keyword inline.

3/11/2016 40
int x; // global variable
void f() // function definition
{
static int y; // static variable y can be used by local class
int x; // auto variable x cannot be used by local class
extern int g(); // extern function g can be used by local class
class local // local class
{
int g() { return x; } // error, local variable x
// cannot be used by g
int h() { return y; } // valid,static variable y
int k() { return ::x; } // valid, global x
int l() { return g(); } // valid, extern function g
};
}
int main()
{
local* z; // error: the class local is not
visible
// ...}
By:-Gourav Kottawar

3/11/2016 41
A local class cannot have static data members.
void f()
{
class local
{
int f(); // error, local class has noninline
// member function
int g() {return 0;} // valid, inline member
function
static int a; // error, static is not allowed for //
local class
int b; // valid, nonstatic variable
};
} // . . .
