Description
Do you want to make great apps?
If you are someone with no previous programming experience or someone with programming experience and would love to learn C++ you have come to the right place. In this course you will be taken through the baby steps of C++ and learn about functions, header files, datatypes, arrays all the way to more advanced c++ concepts such as classes, structures, pointers, macros and memory and in just over four hours your experience will flourish.
You will also learn about Makefiles and how to use them as well as how to use the compiler G++. This will allow you to write code without the assistance of an IDE which is normally essential with C++ when developing open source projects so that you can give the programmer who uses your code freedom on how he or she wishes to compile your project. I recommend the code editor Visual Code when writing C++.
After this course you could be considered to be a decent C++ developer.
I have programmed in C++ for a long time and have created my own programming language's which I wrote the compiler and interpreter for in C++. I am sure you will be happy with this course.
Who this course is for:
- Anyone who wants to learn how to code
- Anyone who wants to learn C++
- Anyone who wants to learn about system memory and a little bit about how processors work

I am a software engineer that has been programming for 14+ years I have a Masters Degree in Advanced Computer Science from Cardiff Metropolitan University. My experience is extensive and covers web development all the way to compiler and interpreter development. I have also developed bootloaders and kernels that can boot from the FAT(File Allocation Table) filesystem.
I have developed two programming languages of my own. One is called Craft language. The other is called Marble which is a web language like PHP. Ive developed C compilers as well.
I have experience in the following programming languages: C, C++, Java, x86 Assembly language, PIC assembly, SQL, PHP, HTML5, JAVASCRIPT, CSS, Craft, Marble
I also have programmed Linux kernel modules professionally in the workplace.
These days I am focused on providing my years of expertise to students to help them grow as professional software engineers.
