Absolute C++ 5th Edition by Walter Savitch (We are using a special bundle this term. The textbook should be in a 3 ring binder with an enclosed access code for MyProgrammingLab. You may pur-chase the book and code separately but if you do so the access code can only be purchased on the publisher website)

Prerequisites

CSC 2473 (Intro. to C) or instructor approval.

Course Description

Programming techniques in object-oriented programming, including data abstraction, inheritance, polymorphism, and dynamic object creation. Emphasis will be place on the reusability of object and the focus on object concepts as they deal with future program maintenance.

Goals

The goals of the Introduction to C++ Programming course are that students, by mastering the top-ics presented in this course, gain valuable problem-solving skills and C++ knowledge that will en-able them to become procient in object-oriented programming with C++ characteristics.

Objectives

Upon successful completion of the Introduction to C++ course, students will be able to apply the object-oriented approach to develop and design robust and highly reusable classes and applica-tions.

Edition by Morelli and Wade

Prerequisites

CSC 2473 (Intro. to C) or CSC 2843 (Intro. to C++) or instructor approval.

Course Description

An introduction to how Java language is used to develop highly portable applications and applets. Topics will include data objects, exceptions, threads, and the Abstract Windows Toolkit.

Goals The goals of the Introduction to Java Programming course are that students, by mastering the

topics presented in this course, gain valuable problem-solving skills and Java knowledge that will enable them to become proficient in object-oriented programming with Java characteristics.

Objectives

Upon successful completion of the Introduction to Java Programming course, students will be able to apply the object-oriented approach to develop applications and applets with graphics,

multithreading, multimedia, exception handling, I/O, and networking.

Course Content

The course covers fundamental Java programming and core Java API. Specifically, the following topics will be included:

1. Fundamental programming concepts, including primitive data types, control structures,

methods, method abstraction, and arrays

Spring 2015 CSCI 2843 Introduction to C++

Course Content

The course covers fundamental C++ programming and Object-Oriented programming and design techniques. Specically, the following topics will be included:

1. Object-oriented programming: class abstraction and encapsulation, and class inheritance.

2. Polymorphism: the power of virtual functions and dynamic binding

3. Exception handling: how C++ handles exception and how to incorporate exception-handling capability into programs

4. I/O: I/O character and binary programming

5. Operator Overloading: Extending operators to integrate with user-dened classes

6. Templates: building generic classes and functions

Course Grade

The course grade will be calculated as follows:

Completion of MyProgrammingLab (MPL) for each chapter - total 680 pts

12 Programming Projects (PP) @ 100 pts each

Completion of student information forum post - 20 pts

Ongoing and meaningful participation in Discussion Forums - 100 pts

Total Points Possible: 2000

Grading Scale

The standard TCC 90-80-70-60 grading scale will be used.

Course Deadlines (Deadline is always at midnight on Friday of the indicated week) MPL = MyProgrammingLab; PP = Programming Project Deadline #1: Week 4 - MPL for Ch 1-4; PP 1-3 Deadline #2: Week 8 - MPL for Ch 5-8; PP 4-6 Deadline #3: Week 12 - MPL for Ch 9-12; PP 7-9 Deadline #4: Week 16 - MPL for Ch 13-15; PP 10-12

Academic Dishonesty

CSCI 2843 Introduction to C++ - Course Syllabus Fall 2015 4

Spring 2015 CSCI 2843 Introduction to C++

Academic dishonesty (cheating) is dened as the deception of others about ones own work or about the work of another. Academic dishonesty or misconduct is not condoned or tolerated at campuses within the Tulsa Community College system. Tulsa Community College adopts a policy delegating certain forms of authority for disciplinary action to the faculty. Such disciplinary actions delegated to the faculty include, but are not limited to, the dismissal of disrespectful or disorderly students from classes. In the case of academic dishonesty a faculty member may:

require the student to redo an assignment or test, or require the student to complete a substitute assignment or test;

Record a "zero" for the assignment or test in question;

Recommend to the student that the student withdraw from the class, or administratively withdraw the student from the class;

Record a grade of "F" for the student at the end of the semester.

Faculty may request that disciplinary action be taken against a student at the administrative level by submitting such request to the Dean of Student Services.

Institutional Statement

Each student is responsible for being aware of the information contained in the TCC Catalog, TCC Student Handbook, Student Code of Conduct Policy Handbook, and semester information listed in the class schedule. All information may be viewed on the TCC website: www.tulsacc.edu
