The Complete Introduction to C++ Programming

Start a new C++ console project, write the first hello world line in the main file, and learn to run, build, save, and manage files in the code environment.

learn to write a basic c++ program using the standard input-output header, cout, and the insertion operator to print text and control order of operations in main.

Store text and numbers as strings in C++, create string variables for foods, and print combined sentences to demonstrate basic data storage and variable usage.

Explore common string operations in C++ by building a sample sentence, measuring length with size and max size, locating substrings with find, editing characters by index, and clearing the string.

Explore numbers in c++, using integers and doubles, perform basic operations—addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division—and learn to include cmath for functions like sqrt, rounding, max, and min.

Explore basic numeric operations in C++, using min and max to compare two numbers and rounding with floor, ceil, and round. Learn power and square root calculations with practical examples.

Build a small c++ project that practices variables, strings, integers, and basic math, outputting a personalized hello with a name, pizza slices, cost, exercise time, calories, and min/max calculations.

Discover how to interact with users in C++ by prompting text with getline and numbers with cin, storing answers in string and int variables, and echoing responses.

Students build a basic food ordering app in C++ that collects user input for food, drink, prices, and tip, then computes and displays the total.

Learn to store multiple elements with arrays in C++, defining a food array, filling it manually with items like pizza and lasagna, and printing by zero-based indices.

Use getline to capture multiple user inputs into an array, assign values to indices such as two and three, and print all elements to illustrate basic data storage in C++.

Learn to create and call multiple functions in C++, store data in an area with elements like BMW and Audi, and sum stock quantities while understanding the execution order.

Learn to add parameters to C++ functions and create an addition function to process two or more integers, then call it from main to perform add, subtract, multiply, and divide.

Explore how C++ uses operators to compare elements—equal, not equal, greater than, greater or equal, smaller than, and smaller or equal—and how logical operators combine conditions in if statements.

Master the if statement in C++: learn how to set conditions, handle true and false branches with else and else if, and build simple applications.

Practice the if function with variables, integers, and strings to verify values and print outcomes. Use equal and greater than operators, plus else logic, to decide between great and bad.

The lecture explains using the if function with else if to determine four outcomes for two questions about pizza and burgers, using getline to read input.

Develop a coffee selector in C++ that asks the user if they want coffee, uses an if statement to compare balance with price, and updates the balance or prints alternatives.

Master the basics of loops in C++, focusing on for loops and while loops as essential repetition constructs, with for loops for known counts and while loops for unknown counts.

Learn how a for loop in C++ uses initialization, a condition, and an increment, starting at zero and looping until 50 with adjustable steps in a basic program.

Explore the while loop in c++ by building a password check that repeats until the user enters the correct password, contrasting it with a for loop when iterations are unknown.

Apply the switch statement to map integers to color names such as red, blue, and yellow. Learn to define a color variable, implement cases, handle defaults, and print results.

Learn how to use comments in C++ to describe lines of code and individual functions, and understand that comments are ignored by the compiler.

Create a final project: a basic C++ login flow by prompting for a username and password, storing them as strings, and validating input with a while loop until correct.

Demonstrate final project part 2 by building a bagel app in C++ that starts with five dollars, uses getline to add funds, and updates balance via an if statement.

Demonstrates final project part 3 by correcting a logic bug using or, handling bagel order input with getline, and modeling bagel types and prices with arrays to guide user selection.

Explore final project logic in c++ by implementing if statements to handle user choices, compute total price, and update remaining balance for bagel orders.

Final project part 5 validates input with a while loop, forcing the user to choose 1, 2, or 3, while building username and password tests with if statements.
