This week, we looked at multi-dimensional arrays. I have used these types of arrays in both C++ and Java previously. The largest I have used are two-dimensional arrays. I think anything larger than that is unreasonable, and I cannot think of an instance in which I would want to use one. Many other data structures exist that may be preferable in some of these scenarios. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Inheritance allows you to avoid reusing code when defining multiple class that may have a similar function. For example, if I wanted two versions of a class, but I wanted one to print some values to the screen and I wanted one to hide the data, I could make a child class of the one and create a print function of it, rather than create a whole new class. I have used this concept in earlier computer science courses. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
