What YOU will Learn

In this course, you will learn how to program in Modern C++. I will show you how to write and use C++ to build a small image loading application by the end, exercising various parts of the standard library. Part of this course will also cover memory and memory management, which is an important part of the C++ language. We'll cover systems topics so you can understand where the performance comes from in the C++ programming language. By the end of this course, you will have a good handle on modern C++ programming techniques, and be ready to start your own projects using what you have learned in this course.

Thank you so much! This course helped increase my confidence in writing in C++. The way Dr. Mike explains concepts is so friendly and clear, and I felt the project itself was a nice intro to organizing and creating C++ projects. It also gave me a nice jumping off point to write my own image processing filters! I also enjoyed seeing the debugging process with GDB. All in all, would highly recommend this course, as well as Dr. Mike's other videos.

Mike does a great job at introducing C++ concepts in a quick but meaningful way. If you are looking for lessons from a teacher that really goes in depth in an easily digestible way, then Mike is the way to go. He also has a free C++ course on his YouTube that goes more in depth about some of the topics he covered in this course. If you are on windows like me, I do recommend using a Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). I personally used Ubuntu for this course. It makes it just a little easier to follow along, but not absolutely necessary. Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase and for this price, the quality of content is unbeatable.

FAQ

  • Is there a free preview available?

    If you enroll on the website, you can view many of the lessons free. I also have a YouTube Channel that I think will give you an idea of my instruction style (as well as with a few free lessons on this course as well!)

  • Why C++, is it still relevant?

    If you search for job listings for embedded, game, high frequency trading, backend, distributed systems, etc. you will find many listings for C++. Learning C++ allows you to also *think* in different paradigms. This course will provide you a good introduction to understanding of where some of the performance of C++ comes, while allowing you to build a fun project.
