Course Description
This course was developed for anyone who wants to learn Object Oriented Programming and C++ Programming in particular and knows at least one programming language. This course WILL NOT teach you C Programming but knowledge of C is essential to learn C++. If you know at least one programming language but that language is not C, then you should sharpen your C skills first before taking this course. This is an Object Oriented Programming course using C++ and designed to match the standard of any C++ Programming course or Object Oriented Programming course at the graduate level. Topics include: Traditional Programming Approach, Problems with Traditional Programming Approach, Object Oriented Technique, Advantages of Object Oriented Programming, C++ Programming Features, Components of C++ Program, Keywords in C++, C++ Objects, C++ Classes, C++ Derived classes, C++ constructors, C++ destructors, C++ inline functions, C++ static functions, C++ constant functions, C++ friend, C++ Pointers, C++ Void pointers, C++ Overloading, C++ Polymorphism, C++ Virtual functions, C++ dynamic binding, C++ namespaces, C++ Standard Template Library, C++ Templates, C++ Exception Handling) . By the end of this course you will be proficient in C++ Programming and will be able to: - Write complex C++ Programs Object Oriented Programming in C++
- Understand the flow of already written complex C++ Programs
- Debug complex C++ ProgramsObject Oriented Programming in C++
Each lesson would be followed by a C++ programming assignment to master all the concepts taught in the lesson. Each assignment will require you to write a couple of C++ programs. I will be there to assist in doing the programming assignments. Learn C++ Programming, the most demanding Object Oriented Programming language. This course is not a C++ tutorial but an instructor led online course to learn Programming in C++. C++ programming exercises will require you to compile, debug and run programs in C++. Students also need to take an online quiz after completing each lesson. The Quiz will test you on C++ Programming concepts taught in the class lessons. I will be there to answer all your questions related to class lessons, programming assignments, quiz and exams. You can complete this course at your own pace and start programming in C++. Course Requirements
You should either know one language like Java or C already. You need to have a C++ compiler. You can download a free C++ compiler from the URL provided in my Class Netlinks under the Downloads section.
