Who is teaching the programme?

Several Software Developers from Bluefruit Software will also be on hand to help and shed light on what it’s like to have a successful career in programming.
What will I learn?
There will be a whole host of activities throughout the programme, enabling mistakes to be made, corrected and good practice learned. There is also a large ‘themed’ project undertaken, allowing you to see how things really fit together in a professional working environment.
This project will involve common features such as object-orientation, dynamic collections and some serious memory management, but the theme may vary depending on your requirements.
Below are some examples of what we will cover on this programme:
- Compiling and linking works and issues such as machine code and other elements happening ‘under the bonnet’
- Implementation and use of fundamental data type, variations, standard library and namespaces;
- The important elements of control flow;
- How history of C++ affects the way programs are written today, incorporating prototypes, header files as well as the many uses of the static keyword
- Traditional array mechanics and their shortcomings;
- What pointers are, their syntax and benefits, creating dynamic objects and arrays and the inter-changeability of arrays and pointers;
- Object orientation such as encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism along with a strong emphasis on what is happening under the wraps. Constructors and destructors are experienced including implicit/explicit constructors.
- Many other skills such as, using standard library, various collections, iterators, algorithms, sorting, finding, smart pointers and threads
For those of you with more experience, and depending on where you want to go with your learning, you may also cover:
- Structs and unions, bitwise operators, conditional compilation, various casts, C compatibility and coverage of header file techniques;
- Other subjects which are platform dependent such as: dynamic linking, inter-process communication and precompiled headers.
