Course Format: Classroom | E-learning | Virtual Class | Online | On-site | Blended | Self-paced

Course Description:

'' This course provides a solid foundation of C++ with focus on object-oriented concepts and programming techniques. Emphasis is placed on classes, objects, abstract data types, inheritance, polymorphism, and templates. All of the C++ language constructs are covered in the course.

Prerequisites
One of the following courses (or equivalent knowledge of a high-level programming language): Introduction to C++, Introduction to Java, or Introduction to C.

Overview
C++ has become one of the most widely used programming languages in the software industry. C++ brings the object-oriented design and development concepts to a development environment without performance sacrifices that may happen with other object-oriented languages. This class will provide a solid C++ development foundation for developers with introductory knowledge of a high-level programming language, such as C, C++, or Java. The course will explore the concept of classes and objects, and how they can be used to build advanced data structures and to enable the object-oriented programming paradigm. The course covers all of the key object-oriented programming concepts, such as encapsulation, polymorphism, overloading, inheritance, and reuse. A variety of C++ programs will be analyzed and created in the course to gain experience with the best C++ programming techniques.

Readings and discussion will help to convey the main body of knowledge and to stimulate critical thinking as well as good programming techniques. There will be ample hands-on programming exercises to practice the language constructs and best programming practices. The most effective learning will result from the students’ programming practice of the programming techniques and approaches learned in class through the homework assignments. A final exam will supplement programming assignments and discussion activities. Any standard C++ compiler can be used for programming assignments.

Topics covered in this course include:
Classes and Objects
Data Abstraction
Operator Overloading
Class Inheritance and Multiple Inheritance
Virtual Functions and Abstract Base Classes
Polymorphism
C++ Stream Input and Output
File Processing
Templates
Exception Handling
Data Structures: List, Stack, Queue, Binary Trees
String and Character Processing
Standard Template Library (STL) and Standard Containers
