Course Summary
The purpose of this workshop is to teach you the basics of programming in
C++. Upon completing this workshop, participants will be able to write
moderately complex object-oriented C++ programs, understand the basics of object
orientation, and know the core C++ standard library. Another goal is to teach
participants how to become a better software developer and write higher-quality
code.
Focus areas:
- The C++ language fundamentals h
- Object-oriented programming in C++
- The Standard Template Library (STL)
- C++ development tools
- Software design and development techniques
