C++ Programming  Introduction to Splitting Class Files Class structure  If an aspect of object-oriented programming is encapsulation, then why would we split our classes into separate files?  Why not keep it all in one if we wish to "encapsulate" all there is about the class? Recall that a part of encapsulation is also data hiding.  Think about your car for a bit as we use it in an analogous way.  A car is a complex device that contains many different components.  You are able to operate your car without the need to understand the complexities of the internal combustion engine or the radio electronics.  You don't need that knowledge to be able to effectively operate the car. Likewise, a programmer using your class files does not need to know how you have implemented your methods to achieve the functionality.  In fact, perhaps you have a proprietary algorithm for a spell checker that is really fast and you don't want any...
