Look inside
Well-designed applications run more efficiently, have fewer bugs, and are easier to revise and maintain. Learn the fundamentals of Object-Oriented Design by investigating good–and bad–code.
Using an engaging “before-and-after” approach, Object-Oriented Software Design in C++ shows you exactly what bad software looks like and how to fix it with good design principles and patterns. In it, you’ll find:
Author, former NASA software engineer, and San Jose State University programming instructor Ronald Mak has written Object-Oriented Software Design in C++ as a masterclass for improving object-oriented programming skills. You’ll learn how to build the kind of high performance applications delivered by the pros, all using industry-proven design principles and patterns. The book’s accessible examples are written in C++ 17, but its universal principles can be applied to any object-oriented language.
Using an engaging “before-and-after” approach, Object-Oriented Software Design in C++ shows you exactly what bad software looks like and how to fix it with good design principles and patterns. In it, you’ll find:
- Design-code-test iterations that improve code with each revision
- Gathering requirements to make sure you’re developing the right application
- Design principles like encapsulation and delegation that solve programming problems
- Design patterns including Observer Design Pattern that fix architecture issues
- Using recursion and multithreading to simplify common solutions

about the book
Object-Oriented Software Design in C++ is packed with 'before' program examples that show what not to do, followed by 'after' versions built with the benefits of good design. Each chapter is full of mentorship-style conversations that anticipate questions and help point out subtleties you might have missed. You’ll learn how to gather and analyze requirements so you’re building exactly what your client is looking for, discover how to utilize iterative development to backtrack mistakes, and revise your code to be as good as it can be.As you go, you’ll build a toolbox of design patterns and principles that help troubleshoot common issues with application architecture. You’ll soon be delivering software you can be proud of—and that employers will pay top rates for you to build.
about the reader
For beginning or intermediate C++ programmers looking to improve the way they code and build software. Examples are in C++ 17.about the author
Ronald Mak is a highly rated instructor in object-oriented analysis and design at San Jose State University. His career has included roles as a senior computer scientist at NASA and JPL, where he contributed to major missions like Mars rovers and the Orion spacecraft. Ronald's expertise spans research at IBM, enterprise software strategy at Lawrence Livermore Lab, and senior roles at Apple and Sun Microsystems.
