To allow for a truly hands-on, self-paced learning experience, this course is video-free. Assignments contain short explanations with images and runnable code examples with suggested edits to explore code examples further, building a deeper understanding by doing. You'll benefit from instant feedback from a variety of assessment items along the way, gently progressing from quick understanding checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and un-scrambling code blocks) to small, approachable coding exercises that take minutes instead of hours.
Course 1 of 4 in the Programming in C++: A Hands-on Introduction Specialization
What You Will Learn
- Use variables and operators to store and manipulate small pieces of data
- Automate decision making using selection statements so the program result differs based on data
- Repeat sections of your program using the appropriate loop type
Syllabus
WEEK 1
Basic Skills - Writing your first program!
Get started by coding and running your first program in minutes! Learn about the different types of data and how to store it in variables.
WEEK 2
Operators
Use arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /, and %) and boolean operators (and, or, not) to manipulate data stored in variables.
WEEK 3
Conditionals
Program decisions using conditionals so your program can produce different output based on data.
WEEK 4
Loops
Use different types of loops to repeat sections of your program without copying-and-pasting the same lines over-and-over again.
