  • Q1. Implement vector class.
  • Ans. 

    A vector class can be implemented using an array to store and manipulate a dynamic list of elements.

    • The class should have methods to add, remove, and access elements.

  • Ans. 

    A constructor is a special method that is used to initialize objects of a class.

    • Constructors have the same name as the class they belong to.

    • They are called automatically when an object is created.

    • They can take parameters to initialize the object's state.

  • Ans. 

    Yes, a virtual destructor is used to ensure proper destruction of derived class objects.

    • A virtual destructor is declared with the virtual keyword in the base class.

    • It ensures that the destructor of the derived class is called before the base class destructor.

    • Without a virtual destructor, memory leaks and undefined behavior can occur.

    • Example: class Base { virtual ~Base() {} }; class Derived : public Base { ~Derived() {}...
