Fundamentals of Object Oriented Programming

A lecture course on OOP

This NPTEL course from IIT Roorkee introduces object-oriented programming through both C++ and Java. The first lectures set out the paradigm, then move to classes and objects with solved problems in each language.

Lecture topics

• Constructors, including default, parameterised and copy constructors
• Access specifiers in C++
• Single, multilevel, multiple, hierarchical and hybrid inheritance
• Friend functions, which bend encapsulation in a controlled way

Who it suits

Students who want a university-style lecture course will find the pace suited to careful note-taking. The list is cut short in the listing, so check the full lecture sequence to see the later material on polymorphism and abstraction. The listing does not show every later lecture, so the full sequence is the best guide to how far the course goes.
