OOPs with C++

C++ Programming Language

Description:

In this class, we will learn the basics about C++ programming language such as variables, data types, arrays, pointers, functions and classes etc.

Objective:

At the end of the class, we expect people to have a good understanding about the concept of object-oriented programming using C++, be able to write and read basic C++ code.

Prerequisite:

No prior knowledge about C++ is required, but people are expected to have some basic knowledge about computers, some knowledge about one or two other programming languages such as Perl, PHP, Python or Java etc is preferred.
