Key benefits

  • Get the fundamentals you need for your next C++ projects
  • Understand what a reference is and how to use it
  • Write OOP code with C++ and learn best practices from the start

Description

This course offers a comprehensive approach to learning C++, a language often considered difficult to master but with many advantages over other “less powerful” programming languages such as Python or JavaScript. The course is divided into four distinct levels, each containing an introduction video, hands-on lessons, and exercises to practice key concepts. Level 1 covers basic programming concepts such as variables, arrays, vectors, and user input. Level 2 focuses on functions, scope, comments, and namespaces, while Level 3 delves into conditions (if statements) and for and while loops. Level 4 builds on these concepts, introducing references, prototypes, and the compilation from the terminal. Additionally, the course includes an extra bonus section on Object-Oriented Programming, a skill that is increasingly in demand in the industry. By the end of the course, you will have a solid understanding of how to organize your C++ code with .hpp and .cpp files, as well as the ability to write object-oriented code with C++.

Who is this book for?

This course is for programming beginners who want to start learning C++ with a comprehensive and to-the-point course; for programming beginners who learned another language before and want to switch to C++; for anyone interested in working on video games, embedded software, robotics, artificial intelligence, operating systems, and so on.

What you will learn

  • Write clean C++ code from the scratch
  • Learn to use the C++ standard library
  • Learn all about variables, functions, loops, conditions, and more
  • Learn how to configure Visual Studio Code
  • Organize your C++ code with .hpp and .cpp files
  • Create prototypes for your C++ functions

It is really a very good course for beginners that I would recommend. The instructor explained things in pretty simple way step by step with no rush.

needs closed captioning/subtitles for those of us that are hard of hearing. instructor was good, needs more content/examples or even more assignments to try and review the solutions. As an example, I tried to take the inheritance a step further and struggled to understand why a class kept failing until a coworker explained the error message to me and helped me correct my work. Just think this course needs more examples as well as more content from a beginner perspective (read/write to a file, list files in a directory, sorting, convert int to string and string to int, etc)
