What you'll learn

Implement the basic Object Oriented Programming Principles
Choose when and where to apply these programming ideals
Improve Code Readability and Maintainability
Adopt industry standards in program design
Participate confidently in a conversation about OOP and the role it plays

Requirements

You will need access to a computer with an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) installed. I will be demonstrating concepts using a windows PC running visual studio 2010.
You will need some familiarity with your tools, i.e. how to create a project and how to start debugging. But don’t worry, we cover this in the first demonstration.
You should be familiar with the basics of programming, such as Loops, Methods and arguments.

Description

Please Note: This is not a live coding course. In order to keep the material as beginner friendly as possible and to save you the time of watching me type, this course does not feature code examples being typed as you watch. It does however contain the code samples covered.

UPDATED: Jan 2016 - added new section on Association, Aggregation and Composition

UPDATED: April 2016 - added new Object Oriented Programming Terminology CheatSheet

This course is about 'Object Oriented Programming' (OOP). If you are new to OOP or are looking to brush up on your programming knowledge perhaps for an interview or just for fun! This course will quickly get you up to speed on the important concepts of OOP.

Language agnostic, the concepts presented in this course can EASILY be applied to any programming language that supports the notion of 'classes and properties'. Including C++, C#, VB.Net, Javascript or PHP.

We will start the course with a brief introduction. Then dive into understanding exactly what the terms 'Abstraction', 'Encapsulation', 'Inheritance', 'Poly-morphism', 'Association', 'Aggregation' and 'Composition' really mean. Next, we will take a look at these concepts in action with some simple examples. And how easy it can be to adopt a good programming style from the start.

Delivered using HD Video, PDF, lecture and code samples (c# projects provided), this course will give you the knowledge and skills needed to put these concepts into practice and become a better developer today!

This course is designed to be a comprehensive introduction and should require about 1-2hrs viewing time, plus an equal amount of time if you wish to code the samples yourself (optional).

Backed by the Udemy 30 day money back guarantee, this course will be yours for life!

So, If you are looking to revise for an exam or interview, improve you coding style, get that new job or just understand the concepts used by professionals today then this course is for you.

If you need to know why 'Code Re-Use and Recycling' is important. Or how 'Good Design reduces flaws' and how 'an Object Oriented Program is much easier to modify and maintain than a non-Object Oriented Program' then this course is for you.

Simply click the 'Take this class' button today to get the skills that you deserve.

I look forwards to seeing you on the inside...

Who this course is for:

This course is meant for new programmers, regardless of language, who are NOT familiar with the concepts of Object Oriented Programming and for intermediate students looking for a quick refresher on OOP. Although this course is taught in C#.Net, all concepts are equally applicable to VB.Net, Java, Javascript etc. This course is probably not for you if you are looking for software architecture guidelines, or advanced software engineering principles.

Hi, I’m Robin. I’m a self-taught Freelance Digital Artist and Illustrator.

I have published drawing courses, ran google hangout sketching sessions and shared tutorials through social media but what I’m best known for is running a Youtube channel where I talk about and create Concept Art, Fantasy Art and more Specifically Creature Design.

I believe drawing and illustration is a skill not a gift! Which means that anyone can learn a skill it simply takes guidance, perseverance and a little patience. We are all artists with our own visions to share. And as we go through life we are touched and shaped by many experiences. It is this unique path that each of us follows which makes creating unique and original art so compelling.

It’s never to late to pick up a pencil and start learning, so I invite you to check out my YouTube Channel, my Website and my Courses here on Udemy to learn more about me and the art that I create.

I look forwards to helping you realize the visions in your imagination!
