Learning outcomes
Students who successfully complete this unit will be able to:
- Explain the principles of the object oriented programming paradigm specifically including abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism (K2,K6,A2)
- Use an object oriented programming language, and associated class libraries, to develop object oriented programs (K1,K3,S1)
- Design, develop, test, and debug programs using object-oriented principles in conjuncture with an integrated development environment (K2,K6,S1,S2,S3)
- Construct appropriate diagrams and textual descriptions to communicate the static structure and dynamic behaviour of an object-oriented solution (K6,A2)
- Describe and explain the factors that contribute to a good object oriented solution, reflecting on your own experiences and drawing upon accepted good practices (K6,A2)
