About the Course

In this 1-hour long project-based course, you will learn how to implement the basics of C++ and OOP program design, discover pointers and memory management in C++, and find optimal situations for using C++ in the real world. By the end of the project, you will create an application that can process basic calculator functions from the user, and stores the previous results. With this project we will create a basic first application in C++, and highlight the differences between C++ and other popular programming languages. C++ has been around since the mid 80s, yet despite its age, it is still an essential part of application development today. C++ is the third most popular language for development, and its balance of low level access and high level concepts ensures that it still holds an essential role, especially in large-scale enterprise development. Students looking to re-skill for another job will find this course gives them a great introduction to C++, and more advanced students looking to refresh their memory will also be at home. Join the course, and get a powerful crash course into C++. This course works on the Rhyme platform, which allows you to have a custom Windows VM that ensures you don't have to worry about any of the setup work that normally causes beginners trouble with C++ or any new language. Students will be able to code along on their desktop and learn by coding with the instructor. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions....

Not that easy concept that is memory management and efficient code writing. Yet, the instructor managed to explain the high-level idea, with practical examples, within the time given. Nice.

It gives some basics knowledge of c++ and its application. It is very useful for beginners who are all interesting in programming

I'd like to learn the C++ concepts more deeply.

Great quality, but not for beginners. Which is what I need. I know how to code in other languages but this course assumes that you have some C++ experience. The instructor warns that it is fast-paced...which basically means you need some understanding of C++.

I'm familiar with C++ but I was confused by the instructions, the order of them was strange for me. I don't find it meaningful and a good way to learn – to have the solution ready from the beginning and just uncomment it line by line.

if i could give it less than a star I would, it's supposed to be for beginners but it's very hard for someone that doesn't understand anything about programming still

Needs basics of C++ programming and basic understanding of methods and classes so I was a bit confused at this point, but the instructor's explanation is very good.

Explained about why to use Copy Constructor, Copy Assignment, Destructor. Why to use size_t instead of int. Why to create header files along with cpp files.
