Write a Program using C Language
Write a Program using C++ Language
Why take this course?
This course is an introduction to the C and C++ programming language. The C programming language has spurred many language developments since its invention by Dennis Ritchie in the early 1970s. Many modern programming languages owe their syntax to C. C is still a very popular programming language after over 40 years. C++ is based on C, but extends the language with features such as function templates, namespaces, and (of course) classes.
In this course, we'll explore the C and C++ programming language. We'll start with data types of C, then quickly dispel the mystery (and fright) that surrounds C's most powerful element, the pointer. Understanding pointers first allows us to grasp the underlying nature of arrays and structs, parameters passed by reference, and many other things hidden by other languages but exposed in C.
Then we will move to streams in C++ , which simplify input and output a great deal.
Here's a brief list of what you'll learn:
C Topics :
- Data types and operators
- Pointers and arrays
- Command line arguments
- Decisions and loops
- Functions
- Structures
- The stack vs. the heap, and dynamic allocation
C++ Topics :
- Primitive data types and variables
- How to create and use namespaces
- Basic I/O in C++ using streams
- File input and output using streams
- Function templates - a look at writing generic code
- Classes and objects
- Constructors and Destructors
- Inheritance (Single and Multiple)
If you've been thinking about learning C and C++, then this course is a good first step.

Watching the way Rick laid out the whole video in one big sheet of code, commented out and then in in a ladder type of fashion. That is impressive alone! How many courses have you seen that that much thought is put into the lessons code? That speaks for itself, I want to have Ricks courses, the mind behind it is an artist.

im using windows the materials are through mac so there is a bit of an adjustment that needs to be done to keep up with operations that occur.

Some videos let you follow along and type out yourself pretty easy and some you can't really do that with. He breezed by a few things, for example, he briefly mentioned what variable++ does without too much thought. I think it would have been better to introduce students to `variable = variable + 1`, and then explain the shorthand later. I also noticed that he did the same thing with the difference between = and ==. I've had a pretty good time with this course so far but I' not completely new to this either, someone that's totally new might get a little more confused.

I had no prior knowledge and this says for beginners for C++ But rather is just for enhancing prior knowledge

This course would improve significantly with some assignments! Topics covered are great and give great understanding but giving an assignment to write queue structure with some good bases on how it should work would improve remembering it greatly!
Overall all topics that I expected to be covered in a good detail. Great course.

So I have Windows. It is taking an OBSTACLE to download the program he is using. I downloaded the Min GNU, but there is no instruction to use the compiler/application the instructor is using. I am at a total lost

I don't know if it's outdated but "make" did not work. Also this whole thing with installing gcc was hell and took like 2 hours because there was no explanation on what the final picture should look like. I thought it was like an IDE but no, it's just Command Prompt

Think there should be more explanations on how to install the minGW and an example of how to execute it on windows.

Course overall is informative but if you get stuck don't count on the instructor to respond, my question was left unanswered. I have taken C++ in the past and was using this course as a refresher, the concepts are explained ok enough. I did learn a few things I didn't know about C though. Sometimes the course pace is a little fast but this was expected seeing it is a Bootcamp.

It is extremely clear and gets into the conceptual side of the statements which is infinitely more valuable than memorizing them without understanding how the compiler and CPU is reading them and eventually spitting out a program. I highly recommend this for people of all levels in C programming. I consider myself as having an already strong foundation in C but this program has crystallized a lot of concepts for me. Keep making excellent videos!

This course was a good refresher for me. I had not done c or c++ for a number of years. Since I was originally self-taught, I wanted to see if there were any areas that were missing. The instructor was very easy to understand and made only a few errors by misspeaking. The pace was good. The mixture of theory and labs was excellent. I would highly recommend this course to others.

ООООЧЕНЬ не хватает хоть какой то интеракции. Пользователь может получить сертификат просто за нажатие на плей, даже смотреть не обязательно, плейлист сам всё проиграет и поздравит вас с прохождением курса.

Good, but not entirely thorough concerning the how to run the command line and the installation of the programs on Windows.

Well narrated with good content. Instructor was very knowledgeable and clear.
Could use a little more detail regarding what is happening "beneath the hood". For example, memory leaks were mentioned but implications were not.

This course was pretty much what I expected; a solid intro to C and C++. Rick is generally clear and concise and explains things well.
