In this lecture, we mainly discuss the details and requirements of the Palindrome homework assignment, however, doing so also entailed discussing many details of static arrays in C++. Specifically, static arrays will have two notions of size, i.e., a maximum size (the maximum number of elements an array can hold) and an actual size (the number of valid elements the array currently holds). Lastly, we discuss and develop an algorithm to solve the homework problem.

In this lecture, we review key concepts that will be covered by the final exam. Also, we discuss more details pertaining to dynamic allocations, including motivation, requesting dynamic memory, and releasing dynamic memory, that will not be covered on the final exam.

Lecture 15: Final Exam Review and Dynamic Allocation

We discuss the details of pointer values and types in C++ in this lecture. We conclude with a very brief introduction to dynamic allocation and some other motivation behind pointer types in C++.

Lecture 14: Introduction to Pointers

We begin this lecture by discussing operator overloading in more detail. The lecture concludes with details on designing a stack data structure class.

Lecture 13: More Operator Overloading and Stacks

In this lecture, we discuss possible solutions to the Fraction homework, as wel as briefly touch on overloading the insertion operator for the Fraction class.

Lecture 12: Member Functions and Operator Overloading

In this lecture, we continue our discussion of Object-Oriented Programming. Specifically, we introduce the idea of member functions to create objects. Such functions are called contructors. We then go on to discuss the various ways clients of the Fraction class can use objects of type Fraction. We conclude with homework problem discussions.
