Create a C++ namespace
Write non-member friend functions to accompany C++ classes
Use dynamic memory allocation in C++

Exercise 8

Use C++ streams to read files
Use C++ STL containers (e.g., map)
Write templatized C++ code

Exercise 9

Define a class that inherits from and implements an abstract class
Evaluate a situation to figure out what smart pointers to use
Utilize smart pointers to manage complex memory structures

Homework 3

Implement classes to read and re-build the HW2 data structures from an index file
Make use of C++ STL, Classes, Inheritance and other modules
Manipulate pointers and manage dynamically-allocated memory

Overview

On Gradescope, you will find reflection questions for each of the exercises and homework assignments completed thus far. As these are reflection questions, the reasoning and explanation matter more than the statement of a fact or opinion. Where possible, please try to be brief/concise while still getting your point across.

When we ask for "distinct" comparisons or "distinct" pros and cons, we mean not to effectively repeat the same point but worded differently. For example, if I was comparing C and C++, and listed out the comparisons:

A pro of using C++ is that it has bool defined as a type by default
A con of using C is that it doesn't have bool defined as a type by default

These would NOT be two distinct comparisons.

Submission

Quiz 3 will be submitted on Gradescope. During the submission window, you may open, close, and submit the quiz as many times as you would like to; only your last submission will be graded.

You are to write up and complete each quiz on your own. We want the work you submit to be a representation of your own thoughts. However, we acknowledge that your peers are often one of the best resources for understanding concepts; therefore, we are allowing the "Gilligan's Island Rule."
