How can i define cardinalization in c++?

[Member_15637771]

I have an block of code which already defined classes. And I want to define their cardinalization. Searched through the internet and books for 2 days but could not find anything. Please help me. Help my poor brain :(( .

I haven’t encountered the notion of “cardinalization” in programming. The only thing close is “cardinality” and that refers to the number of objects of a certain class that are or can be created. In this context the only frequently encountered case is the case of “singletons”, objects they you need to create only once (Google “C++ singleton” and you’ll find tons of information and examples). Otherwise there is no language construct that limits you to create only 3 or 10 objects of a certain class. It is up to your program to limit that.

I'm thinking the source of this requirement should be able to help you know what the word means (i.e., the overall intent).

I think your question may be about object-oriented "one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many" C++ class/object relationships. Cardinality (data modeling) - Wikipedia[^]
