On this repository you can find some basic examples in C++

I started this repository when I attended the course C++ for C Programmers. Then, I decided use this as a quick reference when need to use some features that are normally confused, like pointers, lists, casting, etc.

Each subdirectory has one or more source codes, someone has C and C++ files to show differences between them.

Just use g++ <source file>.cpp -o <executable> To generate debug information, just use -g option

./<executable>

lldb ./<executable> To debug

These examples use classes to store multidimensional points. Using overloading to allow basic operations with points as display, add and multiply

The pointAtt.cpp file shows classes inheritence, including a new attribute on the new Class derived from Point Class

Here there is an example on how separate header and implementation files of a Class

to run just execute g++ main.cpp point.cpp -o main -std=c++11 include option -g to debug

Or you can run make to compile and generate executable file main
