C++ for non-C Programmers

Prerequisites
* Developers with solid programming experience but little or no recent C.
* Delegates must have solid experience of another modern high-level language, including writing and using Functions/procedures/subroutines
* Knowledge of structured data types such as arrays, structs or records
* An understanding of scoped variables (i.e local vs. global data).
* Delegates with less than four months of recent C programming may find this course more appropriate than C++ for C Programmers. Delegates with less than six months of programming experience or with a mainframe background should first attend the C++ Primer course and follow it up with some practical work.

Delegates will learn how to

* Understand the key concepts and vocabulary of object orientation
* Use fundamental and composite data types
* Define and use classes
* Write class member functions
* Use pointers and dynamic memory
* Use constructors and destructors
* Write code that is efficient and robust
* Build new classes from other classes using aggregation and association
* Build new classes from other classes using inheritance
* Use container classes, including template classes
* Use operator overloading
* Design and write code with polymorphic behaviour
