C++ PROGRAMMING

C++ Programming

5 Days course

Language: English

This course is only available on request!!

DESCRIPTION
C++ is the object oriented superset of ANSI C.
This course provides students with a comprehensive study of the C++ Programming Language.
The course stresses the object paradigm including classes, inheritance, virtual functions, and templates in the development of C++ programs.
Lab exercises reinforce the lectures.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Compare the object vs the procedural approach to writing software
Use correct object oriented terminology
Define and use classes in a C++ Program
Select the proper class protection mechanism
Create and use abstract data types
Derive classes using inheritance in C++
Implement operator overloading
Implement polymorphism by using virtual functions in a program
Write programs utilizing the C++ i/o classes

WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
Anybody who has the need to write programs in the C++ language including programmers, engineers, scientists, or other technical support personnel.

ASSUMED KNOWLEDGE
Students should have completed the Introduction to C Course or have equivalent knowledge.
