Overview
C++ is an object-oriented language derived from C. It is a well-established language offering a high degree of efficiency and portablility. Object orientation results in more robust and maintainable code that is easier to understand.
This course covers all the major features of C++ for programmers who do not have experience of C. The basic principles of object-oriented programming are covered.
Participants acquire hands-on experience of the language by working through a wide selection of exercises.
Objectives
On successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Write, compile and execute C++ programs
- Apply C++'s object-oriented features
- Use containers and templates
- Safely manage resources using matched constructors and destructors
- Use elements of the standard library
Audience
This course is aimed at programmers, analysts, engineers and technical managers who are interested in C++ program development.
Prerequisites
Participants are expected to be familiar with at least one other programming language, but no other prior knowledge is assumed.
Programmers with a knowledge of C or Java would be better served by our C++ Programming for C Programmers course
