C++ Design Patterns: Creational


Author: Olivia Chiu Stone
Released: 3/28/2018
Skill Level: Beginner
Duration: 2h 26m



Design patterns solve the challenges software developers face over and over again. They are reusable, proven solutions that make your software more reliable and flexible to change. Creational design patterns move the creation of objects out of the main codebase and into separate classes-a best practice known as encapsulation. This course explores the five most popular creational design patterns for C++. To convince you of their merits, instructor Olivia Chiu first explains why we use design patterns in the first place, and what problems that creational patterns can help you solve. She then reviews the core concepts, implementation instructions, and examples for each pattern: Factory, Abstract Factory, Builder, Prototype, and Singleton. She also shows how to extend patterns and compare patterns to find the best fit for your applications.
Topics include:
Creational pattern concepts
Running C++ design patterns
Implementing design patterns
Extending design patterns
Comparing creational patterns

Programming Foundations: Algorithms

Image
Author: Joe Marini Released: 11/8/2018 Skill Level: Beginner Duration: 1h 45m Algorithms are the universal building blocks of programming. They power the software you use every day, whether it's a spreadsheet, a social network, or a driving assistant. Algorithms offer a way to think about programming challenges in plain English, before they are translated into a specific language like C# or JavaScript. In this course, author and developer Joe Marini explains some of the most popular and useful algorithms for searching and sorting information, working with techniques like recursion, and understanding common data structures. He also discusses the performance implications of different algorithms and how to evaluate the performance of a given algorithm. Each algorithm is shown in practice in Python, but the lessons can be applied to any programming language. Topics include: Measuring algorithm performance Working with data structures such as arrays, stacks, and queues ...
