ADIT 1450 C++
An introduction to programming with C++. This course is meant for students with little or no programming experience. We will start with the basics of programming using the C++ programming language. C++ is the cornerstone programming language used to develop many of the fundamental applications we use on a daily basis. For example operating systems, web browsers and other programming languages such as Java, Python, and SQL are built with C++. We will use the low level nature of the C++ programming language to learn about the fundamental aspects of how a computer works. In this course we will develop basic command line applications, explore how data is stored in memory and how we may use logic to manipulate the data to produce different results.
