UNIT II

1. Write a program to implement a. dynamic polymorphism

Hints:

¨ During multiple inheritances if the appropriate member function could be selected while the program is running is known as Runtime polymorphism

¨ such polymorphisms are known as dynamic polymorphism

¨ examples

¨ sample programs

b. virtual function

Hints:

¡ Different versions for the virtual function should be present in different derived classes with same name as virtual function name

¡ Syntax

¡ Example

¡ Sample program

2. What is inheritance and explain briefly pointer to derived class.

Hints:

¨ Definition

¨ Types

o Multiple inheritance

If a derived class is derived from more than one base class, then it is called

multiple inheritance.

¨ Hierarchial inheritance

If two or more derived classes are derived from the same base class then it is known as hierarchial inheritance

¨ Multilevel inheritance

If a derived class is derived from another derived class then it is known as

multilevel inheritance.

¨ Sample programs

3. Explain copy constructor and destructor with suitable C++ coding.

Hints:

The copy constructor is a constructor which creates an object by initializing it with an object of the same class, which has been created previously.

The copy constructor is used to:

Þ Initialize one object from another of the same type.

Þ Copy an object to pass it as an argument to a function.

¨ Also write sample program with one argument

4.Explain in detail about constructor with dynamic allocation.

Hints:

¨ Constructor is used to initialize an object

¨ Types of constructor

¨ Dynamic constructor is used at runtime

¨ Syntax

¨ Example source codes

5.With an example explain about operator overloading through friend functions.

Hints:

In case of unary operators, overloaded operator can be invoked as

Operator op (x);

In case of binary operators, overloaded operator can be invoked as

Operator op (x , y)

· Sample program

6.Explain about Unary Operator and Binary Operator Overloading with program.

Hints:

o When unary operators are overloaded using member functions it takes no explicit arguments and return no explicit values.

o Sample program

o When binary operators are overloaded using member functions, it takes one explicit argument. Also the left hand side operand must be an object of the relevant class.

o Sample program

7.List out the rules for overloading operators with example.

Hints:

· Only the existing operators can be overloaded.

· The overloaded operator must have at least one operand that is of user defined data type

· The basic meaning of the operator should not be changed.

· Overloaded operators follow the syntax rules of the original operators. They cannot be overridden.
