Time Narration
00:01 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on static members in C++.
00:06 In this tutorial we will learn,
00:09 Static keyoword.
00:10 Static variable
00:12 Static function
00:14 We will do this through an examples.
00:17 To record this tutorial, I am using
00:20 Ubuntu OS version 11.10
00:24 g++ compiler v. 4.6.1
00:29 Let us start with an introduction to static.
00:33 Static variables are initialized to zero before the first object is created.
00:39 Only one copy of the static variable exists for the whole program.
00:44 All the objects will share that variable.
00:47 It will remain in the memory till the end of the program.
00:52 Static functions
00:54 A static function may be called by itself without depending on any object.
01.00 To access a static function we use,
01.03 classname :: (scope resolution operator) and the staticfunction();
01:09 Let us see an example on static memebers.
01:13 I have already typed the code on the editor.
01:17 Note that our file name is static dot cpp
01:21 Let me explain the code now.
01:24 This is our headerfile as iostream
01:27 Here we are using the std namespace
01:31 Then we have class statex.
01:34 In this we have a non-static variable as x declared as private.
01:40 Then we have a static variable sum declared as public.
01:45 This is our constructor statex.
01:48 In this we have incremented sum.
01:52 Then the value of sum is stored in x.
01:55 Here we have a static function stat.
01:58 In this we print the sum.
02:01 Then we have function number.
02:04 Here we print the number x
02:07 The class is closed here.
02:10 To declare the static variable globally we use scope resolution operator.
02:15 To access a static variable we write as:
02:19 datatype classname scope resolution operator and static variable name.
02:26 Now the storage is allocated to variable sum.
02:31 It is initialized to 0.
02:33 This is our main function.
02:35 Here we create objects of class statex.
02:39 As o1, o2 and o3.
02:42 Then we call the function number using the objects o1, o2 and o3.
02:49 Static function stat is accessed here.
02:52 Using the class name and the scope resolution operator.
02:56 Here we print the static variable sum.
03:00 And this is the return statement.
03:03 Let us execute the program.
03:05 Open the terminal window by pressing Ctrl, Alt and T keys simultaneously on your keyboard.
03:13 To compile type
03:15 g++ space static dot cpp space hyphen o space stat. Press Enter
03:24 Type ./stat (dot slash stat). Press Enter
03:28 The output is displayed as,
03:30 Number is: 0, 1, 2
03:33 Result is: 3
03:35 Now static var sum is 3
03:38 Now I will explain the output:
03:39 Let me resize the window.
03:42 Here, First the value of number is 0 ie. x is 0.
03:49 The first object gives the value as 0
03:53 Then we have the value as 1 ie. x =1
03:58 The second object gives the value as 1
04:01 And the third object gives the value as 2
04:05 Then we call the stat function which gives the value of sum.
04:10 Result is sum.
04:13 Here sum is incremented and stored in x.
04:18 Hence this will gived the value as 3.
04:22 Thus the final output we have is.
04:25 Static var sum is 3.
04:28 Now let us create another object here as o4.
04:34 I will call the function number using the object o4.
04:43 Click on Save
04:45 Let us execute.
04:48 Press the arrow key twice.
04:51 Again Press the arrow key twice.
04:54 You can see that Result is 4.
04:57 Now static var sum is 4
05:00 As the 4th object is created.
05:03 This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
05:06 Come back to the slides.
05:08 Let us summarize:
05:10 In this tutorial, we learned,
05:12 static keyword.
05:13 Static variable
05:15 eg. static int sum;
05:18 Static function.
05:19 eg. static void stat()
05:22 As an assignment
05:23 Create a class that declares a static variable.
05:26 Decrement the variable.
05:29 And print the value.
