Large projects may be written by multiple people, or even companies being contracted. Medium projects may not want to have a single large file, and instead, break it into smaller chunks, or files, which makes managing the project easier and easier to edit the files as you look for items. To do this, you need…
Let’s look a little closer at constructors than we did in our initial Defining Classes for Objects example. Anytime you create an object, a constructor is called. If you overload your constructor, C++ will pick the right constructor to call, just like it does when you overload a function. Constructors must have the same name…
Once you create your class, you need to create an object. The Class is just a blueprint for the program to follow. It doesn’t do anything until you create an object based off of that blueprint. Think of a house. If you have a house blueprint, all you have are some sheets of paper or…
Object Oriented Programming (OOP) involves programming using objects. An Object is made from a Class which defines the attributes of the object and the behaviors. Think about it like what is it about or with adjectives (attributes) and what it can do, or verbs, (behaviors). As an example let’s consider a Class called Student. A…
The actual process is programmatically fairly simple. We’ve already seen recursive algorithms in with examples like the quick sort and the merge sort, so that’s not a big issue. Solving the Tower of Hanoi Problem was originally found on Access 2 Learn
The Tower of Hanoi, sometimes called the Tower of Brahma puzzle, is one of the classic problems to look at if you want to learn recursion. It is good to understand how recursive solutions are arrived at and how parameters for this recursion are implemented. The basics of the problem is that you have a…
Linking to an external site means you always need to give the full address. This includes the host, any subfolders, as well as the final file that you wish to link to. Additionally, you will need to prepend the protocol. As of 2019, Google and others are recommending everyone be using https (Hyper Text Transfer…
The most common form of linking will be to other pages within your website. These are often called internal site links, as they are part of your own website. When you link to another file, you need to specify the file name in the href attribute like is shown below. Notice that the only required…
