  1. Why convert from C to C++ ?

  2. What do we know? • The sky is blue • Snow is cold

  3. What do we know? • The sky is blue • Snow is cold • This girl is hot  AND... • C++ supports object-oriented programming

  4. What are the options? • Hide implementation details • Reuse class code • Reuse generic classes use a C++ class template and let the compiler do the work • Extend/Overload operators • Derive classes from base classes

  5. What are the options? • Avoid errors through function prototyping • Add parameters without changing function calls • Using safer, simpler I/O • Improve performance with fast inline functions • Overload function names

  6. Some remarks • Change involves effort Changes will be necessary!! • Massage C code into C++ extern “C” {...} • The hard part: designing objects ask what fundamental operations define each object • If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

  7. Count the butterflies or pose a question!
