Introduction
Computer programming is an essential part of the work of many scientists and engineers. This semester we will teach C++ which
is good at system and application programming is the prefered programming language of engineers is widely used in the software industry Is a huge language with a lot of technical details, but .....

We will concentrate on only a very basic/minimal subset of C++, enough for you to be able to solve problems effectively.

Computer Labs

one hour per week

Lab exercises will be performed in the BIM computer labs. We will compile our C++ programs using the Dev-C++ compiler (Windows) or the g++ compiler (Linux). Every week you should write a few programs yourself in the BIM lab (and more in your free time).
Note: in the BIM computer labs your programs will be deleted when the computer reboots. So you need to save them on a flash drive or on the internet.

BRING A FLASH DRIVE WITH YOU If you have a laptop or desktop at home, then you can install a free C++ compiler on it; see lecture 1 (on the web) for details.

Homework

not assessed

There is no formal homework. However, the only way to learn computer programming is to write computer programs. That means you need to practice in your own time.
Complete all lab exercises, make sure you understand them. Study the course website, and follow any links. Look for exercises under the relevant section of http://cpp.gantep.edu.tr/ Basic tutorial Continue to write as many programs as possible; create for your self problems - to solve by writing C++ programs. Study and solve the example exam questions provided on the course website.

Next week In lecture 1 we look at

The basics of C++

Before then please browse through the course website and the links therein:

And remember the most important part of this course is the time you spend at the computer writing computer programs!
