From (requirements) – knowledge of computer use, C programming knowledge. An IDE – Visual Studio 2015 with Boost support.

  • The level of C knowledge of attendees should be communicated prior to starting the training, to allow adapting the material.
  • Also, how much to focus on the Boost library should be communicated.

To (target) – Strong C++ knowledge, including imperative but mostly OOP. Modern techniques, including basic functional programming through C++11/14 features. Knowledge to extend C++ STL through Boost.

How (structure) – modular, to allow customization of topics if needed.

Strategy

Every topic is illustrated in a practical manner using exercises and code snippets.

The layout of this course is arranged so as to provide a practical approach, increasing exercises in complexity.

The course duration is 40 hours, over a 5 days period.
