Creating a class in c++

Introduction

Before we proceed with understanding as to how to create a class in c++, we need to first understand the what is a class.

Definition : A class is a container of related data and methods (functions).

Example: 

The above example shows a simple example as how we can group details of the students and the methods that will be used to access them.

Syntax for creating a class:

class name 

{

        Access Modifier:

                             Data members;

       Access Modifier:

                            Methods;

};

Access Modifiers can be:

Note : Normally data members will be either private or protected and methods will be public.

Example:

class StudentDetails{

            private:

                  int studentAge;

                  char studentName[20];

                  char studentAddress[50];

            public :

                 void SetStudentData(){

                             //you can write the logic for setting the data

                 }; 

                void GetStudentData(){

                           //you can write the logic for displaying the student data

               }

};
