Agreed Detail Changes to OOP244/BTP200 - C++11

* new - add – from 344/300 – space created by moving const and pointer-array equivalence to 144/100

: simple file objects

: inline functions

: default parameters

: function templates

: abstract base classes

: enhance namespace syntax and descriptions – short definition at intro – fuller examples at end

* trivial additions - add to align with C++11

: long long int – at least as large as long int and no fewer than 64 bits

: nullptr

: auto – creates a variable of the same type as the initializer itself – specific type is not always easy for the user to identify

: object is fully constructed once any constructor has finished execution

: delegated construction – constructor can call other peer constructors – cf. Java, C#

: data member initialization – = initial_value - constructor can override this initial value

: = delete prohibits calling a member function with specified signature – avoids silent conversions

: enhanced for – iteration over a list of elements

: type-safe casting *_cast< >

: terminology - 'special' member functions are the default ctor, copy ctor, copy assignment operator, and destructor

: terminology - 'polymorphic class' is a class that declares or inherits a virtual function
