 Course Description  

This course is a continuation of CS 210. The successful student will be able to read and write C++ code containing recursion and abstract data types (ADTs) such as stacks, queues, linked lists, binary trees, lists, sets and maps. Students will utilize OOP concepts such as encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism while implementing data structures themselves, or using components from the Standard Template Library.

 Prerequisite  

Prerequisite: CS 210 with a grade of "C" or higher; and either MATH 099 with a grade of "C" or higher (or placement into MATH& 141).

Learning Outcomes

After completing this course, the student will be able to:

  1. Read and write C++ code containing pointers and dynamic memory allocation.
  2. Read and write recursive C++ code.
  3. Read and write C++ code that searches and sorts arrays.
