Learning C++


Author: Erin Colvin
Released: 8/8/2018
Skill Level: Beginner
Duration: 2h 26m



C++ is an efficient and versatile programming language. C++ powers systems software, desktop applications, and even video games, and it's the language that helped land humans on the moon. Simply put, C++ is a must-know for any modern-day programmer—and it's a great place to get started if you're programming for the first time. This course will get you up and running fast. Instructor Erin Colvin covers simple data types, including numbers and strings; flow-control features like loops and if, else, and switch statements; and functions, the code that encapsulates tasks your program performs. Dr. Colvin also covers working with files and special data structures such as classes and linked lists. Each chapter is full of practical code examples and challenges to help you practice your C++ skills.
Topics include:
Getting set up to code
Creating your first simple program with C++
Variables and arrays
Flow control with if statements and loops
Functions
Opening and editing files
Data structures

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 ...
