Topics covered include series approximations, root finding methods, manipulation of complex numbers and polynomials, data hiding, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, templates, and container classes. There will be several programming projects throughout the semester, and a final programming project where the student must use C++ and object oriented programming to solve an engineering problem of his own choosing.
