Encapsulation in C++

This lecture covers the implementation of encapsulation in C++, focusing on defining classes, methods, and attributes, and distinguishing between public and private access. It explains the importance of encapsulation through examples, emphasizing the need for precautions. The lecture demonstrates the implementation of a class 'rectangle' as an introductory example of object-oriented concepts. It discusses the internal implementation details, the interface for external users, and the benefits of encapsulation in allowing for internal modifications without affecting external users. Additionally, it explores the refinement of class implementation through method externalization, highlighting the use of scope resolution operator to link methods with classes. The lecture concludes by discussing naming conventions for attributes, accessors, and mutators, emphasizing clarity and readability in code design.
