Lab #1 C++ Refresher and Objects Solution

Description

Exercise #1

1. Design an object to represent a Person

a. Include properties such firstName, lastName,

2. Implement your Person object in C++ using a struct

3. Write a function to print out the Person

4. Test your functions to make sure they work

Exercise #2

1. Design an object to represent a Book.

1. 1. Include properties such as title, author, language, year, rating etc. i. The author is a Person object

1. 2. Include a Constructor that sets the title, author, publisher, year

1. 3. Include methods such as print, setRating, etc.

2. Implement your Book in C++ using a class making all the properties private

3. Test the methods to make sure they work

Exercise #3

1. Create an array of Books

2. Use the data from the given file to populate your array a. Write a function to read the data from a file

3. Write a function to print out the all the books in the array

4. Write a function to reverse your array of Books

5. Write a function to write out the reversed array to a new file

6. Test your functions

7. You can test the overall correctness by reading in the reversed file, reversing it , writing it out, and then comparing it to the original file.

Exercise #4

1. Design an object to represent a Library

1. 1. Include properties such as name, array of books, owner i. Owner is a Person object

1. 2. Include a Constructor with no parameters

1. 3. Include setter/getter methods for the properties

   4. Include methods for print the library

2. Implement your Library in C++ using a class making all the properties private

3. Load the data from the file into the Library

4. Test your methods to make sure they work
