Question 1 max of 5 marks
Discussion:
For this question, you had to convert the struct Student into a class. There is essentially only a slight
difference between a struct and a class. A class is the same as a struct (i.e. a struct may also
contain both member variables and member functions just like a class, even though the examples in
Savitch do not show that) except that, by default, all members are inaccessible to the general user of the
class. This means that all members of a struct are by default public, and all members of a class are
by default private. Therefore, we have to specify that the member functions are public. (As an
exercise, omit the public keyword from the class and recompile it.) While there are situations where a
struct is more suitable, as a rule, you should use classes rather than structs. In general, it is preferable
to use classes, as classes offer better protection.
An object encapsulates or combines data and operations on that data into a single unit. In C++, the
mechanism that allows you to combine data and the operations on that data in a single unit is called a
class.
As name, quiz1, quiz2, midtermExam and finalExam are private member variables (see page
549 of Savitch 6th edition/ page 581 of Savitch 7th edition/ pages 573-582 of Savitch, 8th edition/pages
589-595 of Savitch, 9th edition) of class Student, they cannot be accessed directly in the main()
function. As a result, public member functions getQuiz1(), getQuiz2(), getMidtermExam(),
getFinalExam() and Term() are used to access these member variables in order to determine their
values. These functions are known as accessor functions, while setName(), setQuiz1(), setQuiz2(),
setMidtermExam()and setFinalExam()are mutator functions. (Study pages 553-554 of Savitch, 6th
edition/ pages 585-586 of Savitch 7th edition/ pages 581-582 of Savitch, 8th edition/ pages 597-598 of
Savitch, 9th edition).
Mutator functions are used to change or modify member variables of an object. The parameter of the
mutator function typically indicates the value according to which the member variable should be changed.
For example, the mutator function setQuiz1()below modifies member variable quiz1 to q1:
void Student::setQuiz1(int q1)
{
quiz1 = q1;
}
Note the prototypes for member functions:
string getName()const;
int getQuiz1()const;
int getQuiz2()const;
int getMidtermExam()const;
int getFinalExam()const;
These member function are accessors - hence the const keyword at the end of the function definition.
Note that a member function that does not have the const keyword at the end of it could mutate (change
or modify) the state of the object. Although member function calcAverage() is not an accessor, it should
not modify the object, and therefore the prototype for member function calcAverage() also has the
const keyword at the end of the function definition:
int calcAverage()const;
,Program listing:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
//Class declare
class Student
{
public:
Student();
void setName(string n);
void setQuiz1(int q1);
void setQuiz2(int q2);
void setMidtermExam(int m);
void setFinalExam(int f);
string getName()const;
int getQuiz1()const;
int getQuiz2()const;
int getMidtermExam()const;
int getFinalExam()const;
int calcAverage()const;
private:
string name;
int quiz1;
int quiz2;
int midtermExam;
int finalExam;
};
//Implementation of member functions for class Student
Student::Student()
{
name = " ";
quiz1 = 0;
quiz2 = 0;
midtermExam = 0;
finalExam = 0;
}
void Student::setName(string n)
{
name = n;
}
void Student::setQuiz1(int q1)
{
quiz1 = q1;
}
void Student::setQuiz2(int q2)
{
quiz2 = q2;
}
void Student::setMidtermExam(int m)
{
midtermExam = m;
}
int Student::getMidtermExam()const
{
return midtermExam;
}
int Student::getFinalExam()const
{
return finalExam;
}
int Student::calcAverage()const
{
return int((quiz1 * 10 + quiz2 * 10)/2 * 0.25 + midtermExam * 0.25
+ finalExam * 0.5);
}
//Main function of application
int main()
{
Student aStudent;
string n;
int q1,q2,m,f;
// Obtain student detail
cout << "Please enter student's name: ";
getline(cin, n);
aStudent.setName(n);
cout << "Enter mark for quiz 1: ";
cin >> q1;
aStudent.setQuiz1(q1);
cout << "Enter mark for quiz 2: ";
cin >> q2;
aStudent.setQuiz2(q2);
cout << "Enter mark for midterm exam: ";
cin >> m;
aStudent.setMidtermExam(m);
cout << "Enter mark for final exam: ";
cin >> f;
aStudent.setFinalExam(f);
