Use C++ to build a crypto trading platform V: final system (Coursera)

Use C++ to build a crypto trading platform V: final system (Coursera)

This course is the fifth of five courses aiming to help you to become confident working in the object-oriented paradigm in the C++ language. This specialisation is for individuals who want to learn about objected oriented programming. It's an all-in-one package that will take you from the very fundamentals of C++, all the way to building a crypto-currency exchange platform.

During the five courses, you will work with the instructor on a single project: a crypto-currency exchange platform. Whilst building the project, you will learn about a range of programming techniques from basic control flow and input/output through to file parsing, object-oriented techniques and user interaction on the console.
In this fifth course, you will complete the crypto-currency exchange platform. You will learn about modelling real-world entities as a class, the use of static vs non-static functions, and create a wallet class for the final version of the crypto application.
Upon completing the course, you will be able to:

  • Use object interactions to achieve complex functionality through a simple command sequence
  • Explain how to model a familiar real world entity as a class with data and functions
  • Decide when it is appropriate to use static or non-static functions

Course 5 of 5 in the Object Oriented Programming Specialization.

What You Will Learn

  • By the end of the course, you will have a fully functional crypto-currency exchange application.
  • By the end of the course, you will be able to understand the use of static and non-static functions.
  • By the end of the course, you will be able to explain how to model a familiar real-world entity as a class with data and functions.

Syllabus

Functional Programming Principles in Scala (Coursera)

Functional programming is becoming increasingly widespread in industry. This trend is driven by the adoption of Scala as the main programming language for many applications. Scala fuses functional and object-oriented programming in a practical package. It interoperates seamlessly with both Java and Javascript. Scala is the implementation language of many important frameworks, including Apache Spark, Kafka, and Akka. It provides the core infrastructure for sites such as Twitter, Tumblr and also Coursera.
