How do we start learning about C++ classes?

January 14, 2025, by Slobodan Dmitrovic

When starting with classes in C++, learn about the following topics first:

• Data members
• Member functions
• An instance of a class
• Visibility specifiers
• Constructors
• Member initializer lists
• Destructors

Advanced OOP topics in C++

After we have learned about the basics of classes in C++, we can proceed to more complex topics:

• Copy and move semantics in C++
• Operator overloading
• Inheritance
• Virtual and overridden member functions
• Polymorphism
• Interfaces

The pillars of object-oriented programming in C++ are classes, encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism.
