Chapter Objectives

Upon completion of this chapter the student will understand and be able to utilize the following key concepts:

A representation of information and the operations to be performed on it is a data abstraction.

An abstract data type or ADT is a well-defined and complete data abstraction that uses the information-hiding principle.

An ADT allows the creation and manipulation of objects in a natural manner.

We develop ADTs for rational numbers, uniform pseudorandom numbers, and a simple guessing game.
