Experiment Name:
Constructor and Destructor in C++

Objectives
• Introduce with the Constructor Class in C++.

• Define different types of constructors.

• Learn Constructor and Destructor in C++ with the help of Examples.

1
Example 1:
Write C++ program to demonstrate the use of default constructor.

#i n c l u d e <i o s t r e a m >
u s i n g namespace s t d ;
c l a s s wal {
private :
do uble l e n g t h ;
public :
wal ( ) {
length =5.5;
cout <<”C r e a t i n g a w a l l :”<< e n d l ;
cout <<”l e n g t h = ”<<l e n g t h <<e n d l ;
}

};
i n t main ( ) {
wal wal1 ;
}

Example 2:
Write C++ program to demonstrate the use of Parameterized Con-structor.

#i n c l u d e <i o s t r e a m >

u s i n g namespace s t d ;
class rect {
private :
do uble l e n g t h ;
do uble h e i g h t ;

public :
r e c t ( double a , double b ){
l e n g t h=a ;
h e i g h t=b ;
}
do ub le c a l a r e a ( ) {
return length ∗ height ;

}
};
i n t main ( ) {
r e c t r e c t 1 (10 ,5);
rect rect2 (8 ,4);
cout <<”Area o f t he r e c t 1 : ”<<r e c t 1 . c a l a r e a ()<< e n d l ;
cout <<”Area o f t he r e c t 2 : ”<<r e c t 2 . c a l a r e a ()<< e n d l ;
}

Example 3:
Write a C++ program to understand the Destructor Class in C++.

#i n c l u d e <i o s t r e a m >
#i n c l u d e <c s t r i n g >
u s i n g namespace s t d ;
c l a s s wal
{
int side ;
public :
˜ wal ( )
{
cout <<”D e s t r u c t o r C a l l e d ” ;
}
};
i n t main ( )
{
wal c ;
}

Example 4:
Suppose you have a Savings Account with an initial amount of 500 and you have to add
some more amount to it. Create a class ’AddMoney’ with a data member named ’amount’
with an initial value of 500. Now make two constructors of this class as follows:

• without any parameter - no amount will be added to the Savings Account.

• having a parameter which is the amount that will be added to the Savings Account.

Create an object of the ’AddMoney’ class and display the final amount in the Savings
Account.

#i n c l u d e <i o s t r e a m >
u s i n g namespace s t d ;
c l a s s Addmoney
{
private :
do uble amount ;

public :
Addmoney ( )
{
amount =500;
}

Addmoney ( double a )
{
amount=500+a ;
}

v o i d displayamount ( )
{
cout <<”F i n a l amount i n t he s a v i n g s account = ”<<amount<<e n d l ;
}

5
};
i n t main ( )
{
Addmoney noadd ;
noadd . displayamount ( ) ;
Addmoney addmoney ( 2 0 0 ) ;
addmoney . displayamount ( ) ;
}

Example 5:
Write a C++ Program to define a class Car with the following specifica- tions:
Private members: car name, model name, fuel type: string type mileage: float type
price: double type Public members: displaydata(): Function to display the data members
on the screen.
Use Constructor (both Default and prameterized) and destructor. When no pa- ram-
eter is passed the default constructor will be called with a message ”Default
constructor has been called”.

#i n c l u d e <i o s t r e a m >
#i n c l u d e <s t r i n g >

u s i n g namespace s t d ;

c l a s s Car
{
private :

 s t r i n g carName ;
s t r i n g modelName ;
s t r i n g fuelType ;
f l o a t mileage ;
do uble p r i c e ;

public :
Car ( ) {
carName = ” Mercedes ” ;
modelName = ”C−C l a s s ” ;
fuelType = ” D i e s e l ” ;
mileage = 18;
price = 42000;
}

Car ( s t r i n g cName , s t r i n g mName, s t r i n g fType , f l o a t mile , double pr ) {

carName = cName ;
modelName = mName;
f u e l T y p e = fType ;
mileage = mile ;
p r i c e = pr ;
}

void displayData ( ) {
cout << ”Car Name : ” << carName << e n d l ;
cout << ”Model Name : ” << modelName << e n d l ;
cout << ” Fuel Type : ” << f u e l T y p e << e n d l ;
cout << ” M i l e a g e : ” << m i l e a g e << ” km/ l ” << e n d l ;
cout << ” P r i c e : $” << p r i c e << e n d l ;
}

˜Car ( ) {

 cout << ” D e s t r u c t o r has been c a l l e d f o r ” << carName << e n d l ;
}
};

i n t main ( ) {
Car c a r 1 ;
Car c a r 2 ( ” Toyota ” , ”Camry ” , ” P e t r o l ” , 1 5 , 2 8 0 0 0 ) ;

c o u t << ” F i r s t c a r d e t a i l s : ” << e n d l ;
car1 . displayData ( ) ;
c o u t << e n d l ;
c o u t << ” Second c a r d e t a i l s : ” << e n d l ;
car2 . displayData ( ) ;

return 0;

Discussion
• In this experiment the creation of constructors and destructors in C++ was studied.
Their roles in managing object lifecycles and ensuring proper resource handling were
understood.

• A common mistake made was the omission of semicolons at the end of class declara-
tions or function definitions. This simple error resulted in confusion and compilation
failures.

• Issues were encountered with incorrect parameter types in constructors, leading to

type mismatch errors. Additionally, the failure to properly define destructors for
classes using dynamic memory resulted in memory leaks during program execution.
