Dear Student
Welcome to module 16-7213. Please read the information below.
The programming assignments will be posted during the course of the semester, approximately three weeks before their due date. Programs are evaluated on the correctness of the code and the output, the readability/layout of the code, and the correct usage of the programming concepts discussed in the lectures.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this course.

16-7213 - Object Oriented Methods
Course Syllabus
Course Objectives:
This course covers the fundamentals of Object Oriented Design(OOD) and the implementation of OOD using the C++
programming language. The course introduces the concepts and methodology of OOD
and shows how the C++ language can be used to implement these concepts. The OOD
concepts covered include: Abstraction, Encapsulation, Modularity, Inheritance
and Polymorphism.
