A Course for Beginners: “C++ Fundamentals”.

This course is intended for those who are just starting to learn C++ programming. You will get acquainted with the basics of C++ syntax, learn to work with variables, data types, operators, loops and functions. The course program includes many practical assignments so that you can immediately apply what you’ve learned in real-world situations.

Course topics:

Introduction to C++

Getting acquainted with C++ language: history, peculiarities and spheres of application.
Installing and customizing a development environment (e.g. Visual Studio, Code::Blocks, or CLion).
C++ program structure: how a basic program looks like and how to compile code.

Example code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    cout << “Hello, World!” << endl;
    return 0;
}

Variables and data types

Basic data types in C++: int, double, char, bool, string.
Declaration and initialization of variables.

Example:

int age = 25; // Variable of integer type
double price = 19.99; // Floating-point variable
char grade = 'A'; // Character variable
bool is_student = true; // Boolean variable
string name = “John”; // String variable

Conditional operators and loops

Using the if statement to make decisions.
Switch operator for choosing between several options.
For, while, do-while cycles for repeating actions.
Example with if-else and for loop:

int number = 10;
if (number > 0) {
    cout << “Positive number” << endl;
} else {
    cout << “Negative number or zero” << endl;
}

for (int i = 1; i <= 5; ++i) {
    cout << “Iteration ” << i << endl;
}

I/O Basics

How to get data from the user using cin.
How to display data on the screen using cout.

Example:

int number;
cout << “Enter a number: ”;
cin >> number;
cout << “You entered: ” << number << endl;

Simple C++ programs

Writing small programs to consolidate theoretical knowledge.

Examples:

A program to calculate the sum of two numbers:

int num1, num2;
cout << “Enter first number: ”; cin >> num1;
cout << “Enter second number: ”; cin >> num2;
cout << “The sum is: ” << (num1 + num2) << endl;

Program to determine the parity of a number:

        int number;
        cout << “Enter a number: ”;
        cin >> number;
        if (number % 2 == 0) {
            cout << “Even number” << endl;
        } else {
            cout << “Odd number” << endl;
        }

What you will get after completing the course:

An understanding of C++ program syntax and structure.
Ability to write simple programs that solve basic problems.
Experience in working with data input/output, conditional operators and loops.
Fundamentals of development using C++ for subsequent more advanced courses.
