270 Final Summary

Paradigms

• Know which languages fit which paradigms.
• Know how you would repeat statements in each paradigm (except logic).
• Know how you would accumulate in functional and imperative.

Across languages:

How to define a variable

Functions

• How to define a function with its input and output
• How to call a function
• How to recursively call a function
• How to recurse over a list

Prolog:

• Determine the values that will return from a query.
• Create a fact
• Write rules that can be used to infer facts
• Write rules that infer facts recursively
• Write queries given rules and facts.

Racket:

• define a function
• call a function
• write a recursive function
• write a function that recurses over a list

C++ && C

• Create and set variables
• Create structures and their variables and use those variables.
• Work with std::string, char arrays and char pointers - use correct functions and allocate memory correctly
• Allocate memory - know how and why: malloc/free
• Arrays - passing by reference and getting size inside a function
• Creating and using pointer variables
• Using reference variables as parameters to functions
• How to pass by value or reference to a function
• How to create a class with a constructor
• How to construct a function
• How to call functions of objects
• How to loop
• Screen I/O: cout / cin / printf/ scanf (not file I/O)
• Inheritance - how to create a class that inherits another class
• Use polymorphism on inherited objects to avoid if statements
