1. CS 108 Computing Fundamentals May 1, 2014

2. Finishing Strong • Exam #4 is worth 250 points • Use end-of-chapter material • Chapters 10, 11, 12, 14, and 16 will be the focus • I will e-mail an answer key to Exam #2 and #3 • The open-book will not be a complete program • Instead, I will ask you to develop several function prototypes, calls, and declarations (one at a time) • Exam Date: Tuesday, May 6th • Exam Time: 8:00 AM – 10 AM • Exam Location: Kunsela A112 (Lecture Hall)

3. Preparing For CS 240 • Be very comfortable with pointers and structures • Don't forget everything else we covered!! • Review using your textbook or online sources such as: http://www.howstuffworks.com/c.htm http://www.iu.hio.no/~mark/CTutorial/CTutorial.html • Get the CS 240 textbook before going home • Read CS 240 textbook chapter 1 and 2 prior to attending the first class

4. Preparing For CS 240 (continued) • Familiarize yourself with C++ • Review Chapter 16 in our textbook • Check online sources such as: http://www.4p8.com/eric.brasseur/cppcen.html (excellent!!) http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial.html#c++tutorial http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial.html http://cpp-tutorial.cpp4u.com/ http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/languages/c/c++oop-pmueller/node9.html http://www.intap.net/~drw/cpp/ http://www.icce.rug.nl/documents/cplusplus/cplusplus.html http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/C++/ http://www.functionx.com/cpp/index.htm

5. Preparing For CS 240 (continued) • Get an additional C++ resource such as: http://www.bestwebbuys.com/books/compare/isbn/0672315165 http://www.bestwebbuys.com/books/compare/isbn/0672302004 • Get an additional Data Structures resource and teach yourself data structures over the break (jump-start): http://www.bestwebbuys.com/books/compare/isbn/0672316331 http://www.bestwebbuys.com/Data-Structures-and-Their-Algorithms-ISBN-9780673397362?isrc=-rd http://www.bestwebbuys.com/Data-Structures-In-C-ISBN-9781438253275?isrc=-rd http://www.bestwebbuys.com/Data-Structures-Using-C-ISBN-9780131997462?isrc=-rd http://www.bestwebbuys.com/Understanding-Pointers-in-C-ISBN-9788176563581?isrc=-rd http://www.bestwebbuys.com/books/compare/isbn/0534491820 http://www.mathtools.net/C_C__/Algorithms_and_Data_structures/index.html

6. Preparing For CS 240 (continued) • Last homework assignment • Use chapter 16 and the following Web page as a source: http://www.4p8.com/eric.brasseur/cppcen.html • Convert any GHP that required use of printf( ) and scanf( ) calls (GHP #3 – GHP # 13) to C++ • Use cin( ) and cout( ) insteadof printf( ) and scanf( ) • Replace header files, too • Compile and test • Due no later than Friday, May 9th at 11 AM (for full credit) • Remember: all GHPs must be submitted… see syllabus for specifics… if I don't have them by noon on Dec 11th then I'll record an "I" grade (I will change "I" grades when I receive all missing GHPs… grade changes will be made after June 1, 2014)

7. Introduction to C++ • C++ is a superset of C • Plenty of C source code can be compiled and run using a C++ compiler • The C++ compiler I like: g++ • Let's take 1.c from the following slide and make the minimum changes necessary to convert it to C++

8. #include <stdio.h> // 1.c #include <string.h> typedef struct student { char first_name[20]; char last_name[20]; char ssn[10]; int *student_ptr ; } student ; int main (void) { student student_1; int birdhouse = 357 ; strcpy(student_1.first_name, "Chris"); strcpy(student_1.last_name, "Urban"); strcpy(student_1.ssn, "111223333"); student_1.student_ptr = &birdhouse; printf("\n\nLast name: %s", student_1.last_name); printf("\nSSN: %s \n\n\n", student_1.ssn); printf("\nAddress of birdhouse: %p", &birdhouse); printf("\nAddress that student_ptr holds: %p", student_1.student_ptr); printf("\nStudent_ptr points to the value: %d \n\n\n", * student_1.student_ptr); return (0) ; }

9. Introduction to C++ • Copy the contents of 1.c to 1.cpp ( .cpp file type necessary for g++ compiler) • Compile 1.cpp using g++ compiler g++ 1.cpp • ./a.out

10. Introduction to C++ • Let's wander through this great little tutorial: http://www.4p8.com/eric.brasseur/cppcen.html

11. Idea Forms • The definitive sign that we have no more regular class meetings
