Prerequisites
PB071 Principles of low-level prog.
Students are also required to have user experience with Unix OS or similar, as homework is submitted and tested on a Unix server.

there are 65 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
Course objectives
The goals of the course are to make the students familiar with the C++ programming language (as defined by ISO C++14) and the object-oriented programming principles (as implemented by C++). The course focuses mainly on using the standard library, efficient design of own data structures (classes), the principles of resource management, and the basic principles of object-oriented design.
Learning outcomes
After finishing this course, a student should be able to:
- write C++ programs utilizing the tools of modern C++ (as defined by ISO C++14);
- use a significant part of the standard C++ library;
- create user-defined data types (classes) in C++;
- understand the value semantics of C++ and explain the difference between this semantics and other popular languages' semantics;
- understand the principles of object-oriented programming;
- design simple object-oriented architectures and implement them;
- use exceptions in an efficient and reasonable way;
- use modern development tools (IDE, debugger, version control, build automation tools, testing frameworks...);
- follow best practices guidelines for C++ programming.
Syllabus
  • Basic features of C++ (with respect to C). Standards, compilers.
