C++ Program for a Hopfield Network

For convenience every C++ program has two components: One is the header file with all of the class

declarations and lists of include library files; the other is the source file that includes the header file and the

detailed descriptions of the member functions of the classes declared in the header file. You also put the

function main in the source file. Most of the computations are done by class member functions, when class

objects are created in the function main, and calls are made to the appropriate functions. The header file has

an .h (or .hpp) extension, as you know, and the source file has a .cpp extension, to indicate that it is a C++

code file. It is possible to have the contents of the header file written at the beginning of the .cpp file and work

with one file only, but separating the declarations and implementations into two files allows you to change the

implementation of a class(.cpp) without changing the interface to the class (.h).
