Comprehensive C++ Online
PLEASE NOTE: This is a LIVE INSTRUCTOR-LED training event delivered ONLINE.
It covers the same scope and content as a scheduled in-person class and delivers comparable learning outcomes. Daily sessions comprise 4 hours of class contact time.
Comprehensive C++ teaches the C++ programming language in the context of electronic system design, validation and implementation, where C++ is used both for abstract system-level modelling and for embedded software implementation. It is a direct replacement for a general class in C++ programming, with the added benefit that the syllabus, contextual examples and exercises are tuned to the requirements of the embedded system and System-on-Chip communities.
Comprehensive C++ provides an excellent full scope primer for any of the Doulos SystemC courses, or for anyone wishing to use C++ in the context of electronic system level modelling, hardware-software integration or embedded system implementation.
The workshops are based around carefully designed exercises to reinforce and challenge the extent of learning, and comprise approximately 50% of class time.
Comprehensive C++ is aimed at electronic hardware, software and system-on-chip engineers who need to gain a working knowledge of the C++ language. The course is also suitable as a general introduction to C++ programming, particularly for anyone working in an electronics-related business area or with a background in digital electronics.
Delegates should have had some exposure to the C programming language, in particular a basic level of familiarity with functions, variables, data types, operators, and statements. A good working knowledge of another high-level programming language is an acceptable alternative. No previous knowledge of C++ is required. This course is not suitable as a first course in computer programming.
