Abstract

In this chapter, we’ll introduce one of the most fundamental tools in the C++ programmer’s toolbox: classes. We’ll also present some ideas that are implicit in object-oriented programming and show how they are applied.

Footnotes
1
In the context of object-oriented programming, you’ll find that the term encapsulation may actually refer to two related yet distinct notions. Some authors define encapsulation like we do, namely, as the bundling of data with the functions that operate on that data, while others define it as a language mechanism for restricting direct access to an object’s members. The latter is what we refer to as data hiding in the next subsection. Enough ink has been spilled discussing which definition is right, so we will not go there—though obviously it’s ours. When reading other texts or when discussing with your peers, just keep in mind that encapsulation is often used as a synonym for data hiding.
