Requirements
- Write the following classes:
Point
- Describes a point in the Euclidean plane.
- Note: This means that the x and y values need to be either
float
ordouble
.
- Note: This means that the x and y values need to be either
- Must be able to be initialized with no arguments, defaulting to the point (0,0).
- Note: This is the same as saying that it must have a default constructor. If a constructor has default values for all arguments, it fulfills this requirement and is considered a default constructor.
- Must be able to be initialized with an x and y value.
- Must not be possible to change the x or y value once it has been constructed.
- Note: This means that the member variables containing the x and y values must be private (or protected), and you must implement getters (but not setters) for each.
- Describes a point in the Euclidean plane.
Shape
- Must contain the following pure virtual function:
- Should also contain a virtual default destructor:This allows for child classes being handled through a pointer of type
Shape
to have their destructors called when the variable goes out of scope or isdelete
d (search cpp polymorphism).
Rectangle
andEllipse
- Must inherit from
Shape
, and be concrete classes (i.e. not abstract classes, i.e. they must override allShape
s pure virtual functions).
- Must inherit from
Square
- Must inherit from
Rectangle
.
- Must inherit from
Circle
- Must inherit from
Ellipse
.
- Must inherit from
- Write a function with the following prototype (probably in
main.cpp
):This function should iterate through every column on every line. If the point represented by the character at that location is contained in any of theShape
s, it should print a"*"
(or something). If not, it should print a" "
(or something).This function should also scale the shapes correctly, according the aspect ratio of the terminal characters. It would probably be best to use several constants: one to represent the number of columns, one to represent the factor used to convert the column number to the x value represented by a character in that column, and similarly for the number of lines and the factor used to convert the line number to the corresponding y value.Optionally, you may also draw a border, where the top and bottom of each column is a"-"
(or something), and the first and last character of each line is a"|"
(or something). - Use the following template for
main()
:If youd like to write yourmain()
in a different way thats fine, so long as it accomplishes the same goal.
Requests
- Please try to do this in groups, and try to use Google, etc., only for answers to questions about the language (as opposed to questions about this problem).
Assumptions
- A terminal window is 80 columns wide by 25 lines high.
- The width:height aspect ratio of a terminal character is approximately 1:1.9.
Style
- Place your solution in a
solution--YOURNAME
subdirectory (whereYOURNAME
is your GitHub username). - Include your copyright and license information at the top of every file, followed by a brief description of the files contents, e.g.
- Use include guards in all
.h
files. Be sure to give the preprocessor variable a name corresponding to the file name. For example, inpoint.h
: main()
must have its own.cpp
file. I suggest calling itmain.cpp
.- Classes must have both
.h
and.cpp
files, with member functions defined in the.cpp
files unless they are truly trivial. If it makes sense, you may put multiple classes into one pair of.h
and.cpp
files. - Declare member functions and function arguments as
const
when appropriate (in general, whenever possible). - Document and format your code well and consistently. Be sure to clearly document the source of any code, algorithm, information, etc. that you use or reference while completing your work.
- Wrap lines at 79 or 80 columns whenever possible.
- End your file with a blank line.
- Do not use
using namespace std;
. You may get around typingstd::
in front of things or with, e.g.,using std::cout;
.
