Initializing Class Objects: Constructors

• Constructors
  • Initialize data members; Or can set later
  • Same name as class
  • No return type
• Initializers
  • Passed as arguments to constructor
  • In parentheses to right of class name before semicolon

    Class-type ObjectName( value1,value2,...};
    

  The programmer provides the constructor, which is then invoked each time an object of that class is created (instantiated).
