About this course

This course provides a beginner-friendly introduction to C++ programming for students with basic Python experience, emphasizing fundamental concepts through a clear, side-by-side comparison between the two languages. Over eight weeks, students will learn essential topics including C++ syntax, data types, control flow, functions, arrays, pointers, and basic object-oriented programming, while developing an understanding of the compile-run workflow and static typing. Guided by the Practice-Centered Learning (PCL) approach, the course focuses on reading, understanding, and gradually building programs through extensive hands-on practice, mini-projects, and error-driven learning. By the end of the course, students will be able to write simple yet well-structured C++ programs and establish a strong foundation for future studies in systems programming, AI frameworks, and performance-critical software development.

Learning objectives

Write, compile, and debug C++ programs using correct syntax, static types, control flow, functions, and modular structure while interpreting compiler/runtime error messages to fix issues.
Implement and reason about memory-related features in C++ by using arrays, pointers, references, and dynamic allocation/deallocation to build correct programs and avoid common errors such as leaks and invalid access.
Design and implement encapsulated classes with constructors/destructors and appropriate access control, and integrate objects into small applications that solve a given problem.
Apply STL containers, iterators, and standard algorithms to store, search, and manipulate data efficiently in C++ solutions.
Develop a small multi-class OOP application that uses inheritance and polymorphism to model a domain, collaborating effectively to plan, implement, test, and present the solution.
