from C programming language in terms of
parameter passing in functions..
(b) What is data type ? Draw hierarchy of data 5
types in C++.
(c) Write a C++ program to implement simple 10

file and insert the text "My C++ File" at the
end of it.
(b) What is reusability of code ? Write a C++ 10
program to create a class student, with basic
data members such as name, address, age.

Time : 3 hours Maximum Marks : 100
(Weightage : 75%)

Note : Question no. 1 is compulsory and carries 40

marks. Attempt any three questions from the rest.

1. (a) What is structured programming ? Write

the disadvantages of structured
programming. 5
(b) How do you input non-graphic characters
in the C++ programming language ? What
do these escape sequences represent ? 5

 (e) Describe the concept of classes and objects
through examples. 5
(f) What are Container Classes ? List the
different types of containers and give three
examples of each.
(g) List any five common examples of
exceptions.

2. (a) Consider an example of declaring the

examination result of BCA students of
IGNOU. Design three classes : Student,
Exam and Result. The Student class has
data members such as those representing
roll no., name, etc.

Create the class Exam by inheriting

Student class. The Exam class adds fields
representing the marks scored in 6
subjects.

Derive the Result from the Exam class, and

it has its own fields such as total marks.

Write an interactive program to model this

relationship by showing the three classes.
Also, show how you can print out the
values of each member of these classes. 10+5=15

(b) Define member function. Explain the

purpose of member function. 5

BCS-031 2
3. (a) Define friend function. Discuss memory
requirements for classes, objects, data
members and member functions with an
example. 10

(b) Write a C++ program to print Student

details : Student Name, Father's Name,
Mother's Name, Student Address, Zip code,
Student Roll No. using constructor and
destructor. 10

4. (a) Explain briefly the importance of pure

virtual function in the software
development paradigm. Write a C++
program with abstract class having pure
virtual function. 10
(b) Explain exceptions in C++ program
through an example. 10

5. (a) Explain Inheritance and Multi-Inheritance

with an example. Write a C++ program
which has Inheritance and
Multi-Inheritance. 10

(b) Define Operator Overloading. Write the

general rules for Operator Overloading. 10
