Question

Code:

In class header file:

 class Coconuts
{
public:
    Coconuts constructor();

};

In class .cpp file:

     #include "Coconuts.h"
     #include <iostream>
     #include <string>
     using namespace std;


Coconuts::constructor()
{
    cout << "\nYay coconuts are initialized";
};

In main():

 Coconuts Object1;

My program runs without any erros whatsoever, but the constructor isn’t initialized and the message
is not displayed. Suggestions, anyone?

Answer 1

Constructors are not functions named constructor. The “name” of a constructor is the name of the class itself. Note that constructors are not normal functions and cannot be directly referenced by name, which is why I put “name” in quotation marks.

Your code should be as follows:

//.h
class Coconuts
{
public:
    Coconuts();
};

//.cpp
Coconuts::Coconuts()
{
    cout << "\nYay coconuts are initialized";
};
