OOP-Midterm

Master file for C++ Midterm exam. The exam asked us to define four different classes, Person, Gunslinger, PokerPlayer, and BadDude. Gunslinger and PokerPlayer are both child classes of Person, while BadDude is a child class of both Gunslinger and PokerPlayer. The exam specifically required that the firstName and lastName variable be initialized as char pointers, rather than strings, which is why that portion of the program is sub-optimal. We were also required to use dynamic memory allocation and overloaded assignment operators. Furthermore, several methods were specifically requested as part of the separate classes.

I have intentionally avoided copy/pasting the midterm wording to make this less likely to appear in search engine results for future students.

This was written for the midterm for CSCI222: C++/Object-Oriented Programming.

• Midterm.cpp: Holds the main() function for the program
• BadDude.h: The .h file for the BadDude class that defines its member functions
  • Child of both the Gunslinger and the PokerPlayer classes
• BadDude.cpp: The .cpp file for the BadDude class that contains the bodies of the defined member functions
• Gunslinger.h: The .h file for the Gunslinger class that defines its member functions
  • Child of the Person class
• Gunslinger.cpp: The .cpp file for the Gunslinger class that contains the bodies of the defined member functions
• Person.h: The .h file for the Person class that defines its member functions
  • Parent for the Gunslinger and PokerPlayer classes
• Person.cpp: The .cpp file for the Person class that contains the bodies of the defined member functions
• PokerPlayer.h: The .h file for the PokerPlayer class that defines its member functions
  • Child of the Person class
• PokerPlayer.cpp: The .cpp file for the PokerPlayer class that contains the bodies of the defined member functions

The output for the current version of this program can be seen below:
