C++ Programming: A Practical Approach

Class (Structure++) 65

int main()

{

CuboidMetal* c1=new CuboidMetal ("Silver",10,9.5,2.8,2793,10.5);

c1->DeterminePurity();

}

Output

Metal Silver is pure.

In all previous programs, we have created c1 object on stack everywhere. But, the aforemen-

tioned program creates object on heap using the new operator. There is a memory leak associ-

ated with the aforementioned program that we will discuss in Chapter 11.

2.9 Points to Remember

(i) Class is a data type that provides a convenient means of grouping attributes (sub-data

types) and associated functions related to a particular entity under a single name. It

helps for easier handling and identi cation ...
