    About the course

    Aim

    The purpose of this course is to study constructions and mechanisms in the programming language C++. The course primarily focuses on advanced constructions and advanced usage of C++, but the course is not a systems development course, a problem solving course, or alike. Upon completion of this course the student should be able to:

    • Explain advanced language constructs and their semantics.
    • Explain the overall design principles of the C++ standard library.
    • Use data types with regards to value category and type semantics.
    • Apply non-trivial language constructs to implement generally usable modules that are statically customizable.
    • Use different components and techniques from C++ in combination to solve non-trivial computation problems.

    Content

    The course reiterate topics regarding functions, memory, types, exception handling, classes, inheritance and polymorphism with an in-depth perspective.

    The course covers topics of type system, object lifetime, operator overloading, compilation and linking process, namespaces, templates, advanced static constructs, standard library, function objects, new language standards and C++-specific idioms and design patterns.
