Learn Modern C++!

This course will teach you the basics of the technically challenging but powerful and efficient C++ programming language. I start right at the beginning and describe things in simple terms, avoiding unnecessary jargon.

There are lots of downloadable exercises, with solutions, so you can check your understanding as you learn, gaining familiarity and confidence with the material. These are ideal for preparing for exams or job interviews.

I will be actively supporting the course and I will respond promptly if you have any questions or experience difficulties with the course content.

The course is based around the modern version of the language, which makes it easier to learn. I teach the C++11, C++14 and C++17 standards, but also cover older variations which are still widely used.

The course is designed to give you a good practical understanding of the fundamentals of the language. After successfully completing this course, you will have an excellent basis for learning the more advanced features.

The course is thorough and goes into the material in depth. It is probably best suited for people who have already taken a programming course, although a determined beginner should be able to follow it.
