Overview 

The professional programmer’s Deitel® video guide to C++.

Description 
Written for programmers with a background in high-level language programming, this LiveLesson applies the Deitel signature live-code approach to teaching programming and explores the C++ language and standard library in depth. The LiveLesson presents concepts in the context of fully tested programs, not code fragments. The LiveLesson features hundreds of complete C++ programs with thousands of lines of proven C++ code, and hundreds of tips that will help you build robust applications.

NOTE this LiveLesson is one in a series of three: 

  • C++ Fundamentals LiveLessons Part II
  • C++ Fundamentals LiveLessons Part III

Skill Level 

Beginner-to-Intermediate

What you Will Learn 

C++ Fundamentals LiveLessons Part I begins with a tutorial on setting up your C++ environment, then with tutorials on using Microsoft's Visual Studio or Apple's Xcode. Then begin exploring C++ development. Deitel uses an "early objects" approach in this video, so you are immediately immersed in the world of C++ classes and objects. You then learn about the key control statements in C++ used to manage program flow. And the video finishes with a deeper exploration of C++ functions.

Who should take this course? 

Programmers experienced in a high-level programming language and interested in learning the C++ programming language
Course requirements 
Familiarity with any high-level programming language, including C, C#, Java, Python, JavaScript, etc...
